Thanks for taking us to sturgis and around tried to get my brother to go in his pick up but he wasn’t having it maybe next year he said.oh well we will get there someday. Hopefully you get better with your hip be safe

[@SamuelManaole]

Kurt you look really good. Healthy, happy, and relaxed 😎 I think that rally did you And Sarah well. Thx for a great video and glad you made it home safe with no bike issues 👍🙏

[@ReneeM1]

I enjoy your travel videos as much as the trucking ones

[@denisryle6410]

This fall take a ride on the 550 ( Million Dollar Highway) in Colorado in the fall the colors in the mountains amazing and beautiful. From Ouray ( try the hot springs and the water fall in box canyon) to Durango. Red Mountain pass is breathtaking.

[@raymondbradley6788]

Thank you, Kurt awesome video, brother🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽

[@truckingwithschmidt7120]

My pleasure!!

[@Dibubba]

I was looking for trucks, but this might’ve been even better! 🙂👍 I hope you get the hip sorted out, Kurt!

[@bigbossman3806]

Another great trip, thanks for taking time to do some videos for us...see you down the road.

[@truckingwithschmidt7120]

Our pleasure!

[@royeaves5180]

I understand the hip problems. I think sitting on my ass for 30 years getting bounced around a truck was the main problem. last year I bit the bullet and had both hips replaced. best thing I ever did.

[@myronbedner989]

I'm having trouble with my right hip the last couple weeks hope I don't need a hip replacement just yet.

[@Handfulofhandsomeness]

Driving with your wallet in your back pocket does it too.

[@KeithRowell-l7j]

Drove over the road for 35 years and 3.8 million miles and hips are fine.just saying

[@lindahollister5530]

Mine was loading pallets by hand in my early 20's. Then working on concrete/standing for 8--16 hours a day. 2015 and 2017 two back surgeries. Not fun but it was worth it.

[@lindahollister5530]

Cool looking bikes🎉🎉🎉.

[@mitchwinder1204]

I can’t tell you how many years I stood under the awning on the Drag Specialties semi trailer in Rapid City. Miss it I do not.

[@EdmondBouchard-sy3ml]

Hey Kurt, I've worked at the main warehouse (Mustang) 24 yrs. ago. Thanks for the ride!

[@roberthead3984]

You should consider wearing a hat when it's hot out to protect that dome. love your channel btw

[@truckingwithschmidt7120]

I agree

[@harleyhawk7959]

I just had pre skin cancer frozen on mine, 3 places.

THANKS FOR SHAREING YOUR ADVENTURE. APPREACIATE YOUR EFFORTS

[@lindahollister5530]

She can do your beard. That would look so neat, go for it😂😂. Problem with a chiropractor, they have a problem on telling a person that you need to see someone else! Be careful.

[@philtaylor9103]

Thanks for taking us to Sturgis with you Kurt. Some thing I would dearly love to do one day .

[@skippyjones4195]

Hey 👋 Kurt and Worden glad you had a good time at the rally hope your hip feels better soon 👍✌️❤️☮️💪🏻

[@thewatchmen4920]

WOW SCHIMDT. You remember some people names. Great video with the wife and friends involved. Good weather except 🌡️🌞🔥. Glad everyone made it home safely. B SAFE 🏍️💨💨💨💨

[@truckingwithschmidt7120]

I literally heard thier names and said it straight into the camera for I could replay it lol

[@rogersawyer9265]

Was in the Black Hills in early 80s before my son was born and a few times after that.about 81 was in Deadwood and it was about 106 degrees.some wanted to go watch the shootout,i said go ahead,im going to sit in this saloon thats air conditioned and have a beer or 2 and when you are done come back,ill be here.

[@Stump55]

Thank you for taking someone along to Sturgis who may never get to see it!! It was a great video!!

[@johnscott5105]

Started out driving an International cab over so I also understand those hip issues.

[@fuzzybutkus8970]

First 20 seconds would be a killer video game. Have a remote for the chopper and the whole VR glasses setup would be da bomb.

[@littlebear6767]

Thanks for taking us all along on your trip to Sturgis! I really enjoyed the ride! Great Videos. Thank you and Sara. Also, thanks for taking us along on vacation to Colorado!

[@trapnut]

Don’t remember all the wonderful noise on your previous trips. Great trip! Looked like a ton of fun, just a bit warm

[@pkav8tor]

Great video Kurt! Just enough of the rally and riding roads around to remind me how wonderful that area is for riding and hitting the sights. take care,,,, greg

[@keithnichols7926]

Keystone, SD has changed a lot. Many years ago, when it was a wide spot in the road, I roomed there over night in a private home. A gypsum plant nearby shook the walls twenty-four hours a day reducing large rocks to smaller ones, probably with a conical crusher. Keystone residents must have been deaf.

[@rolfsinkgraven]

A great Sturgis video, loved it, hope they can help you with that hip.

[@aj5434]

--I rode the beartooth hwy back in 2003 ... started out in Cody WY, was 96 degrees F, on top of pass it was cold rain and sleet for little while, quite the change in temp, then in 90's again at Red Lodge MT; but it is one of the most scenic rides in the west. Thx for taking us along to Sturgis 2024, I think now I'll remove my earplugs. BSafe ... oh, and hope yr mom is feeling better.

[@jasongorman7974]

Another Great Video!! Take care of that hip. Im having trouble with mine also hurts when im turning trying to sleep.

Love that thumbnail lol 😆 ❤

[@katiemaher7371]

You have basically "followed" our family vacation but in different order and two different trips. We went to SD, ND, WY, and CO this summer. Thanks for videoing your adventures and allowing us to see some of our favorite spots - RMNP and The Black Hills. Loved Sarah's shirt she wore home. We live in VA. 😃 (Three years ago, when we were headed home from vacation and going through NE, we saw your family heading west. That was pretty neat.) Again, thanks for sharing your adventures!!

[@truckingwithschmidt7120]

We loved VA.

[@timmcdermottgetgf2250]

Hi Kurt and Opie

[@jackson_68]

I attended the rally every year from 1982 until about 2000 or 2001. Then work intruded and my riding/camping partner died of esophageal cancer and I stopped going. I plan on riding out there for a few days in early September to ride with some local friends. 250 miles each way plus whatever we do while I am there.

[@grizzlyridgerunner]

I see you run. Your eitms disabled. First thing i did to mine also 👍 Sturgis is on the bucket list hopefully the wife and i can make it happen thanks for sharing ✌️

By the way Kurt, you are not the only one with the rip problem. My right one and back are scheduled for MRI in a couple of weeks to see that will happen. Take are buddy. It only gets better.

Well Kurt, when will you and Sarah make the trips to Myrtle Beach and Daytona for the real rallies? Myrtle Beach near where I live is about 1400 miles and Daytona about 1520 from Sioux City. Now that the chillins are about gone, time to make some plans.

[@truckingwithschmidt7120]

Maybe once troy graduates we will

[@davidbarnhouse5119]

Well that was a great video! Should've found that shirt for Troy, I had a few of those but I think my youngest son stole them from me when he came out to South Dakota for a visit 2 years ago 😂, oh well I swear that kid doesn't buy shirts whenever he comes home he just asks if he can have some of my stuff. Just like my daughters they clean me out of shirts, oh well what are kids for? See you sometime

[@chrishelms1967]

Kurt said " beat the shit outta you " 😂😂😂

[@harleyhawk7959]

my hip ached, i started strecthing and walking. go to a physical therapist. Unless it feels like someone hauled off and kicked you in the jewelry dept. Your nerves are pinched, not in need of a replacement.

Hello

[@kimjones5366]

Is the Full Throttle open anymore? I’ve never been but know people that have been in the past. I would love to go to Sturgis but it would be way to many people for my husband because he hates crowds. Like the saying goes, “Came on Vacation Left on Probation” would be my husband.😂

[@truckingwithschmidt7120]

Yes, I think so

[@crimsonpearl4686]

Is Troy gonna get a Harley soon and ride with you??

[@truckingwithschmidt7120]

Maybe someday

[@seattlesauce]

I was wondering why you didn't address the elephant in the room. All the stuff going on right now with Harley and woke culture/DEI and the majority or riders boycotting Harley right now. They're not going to the Harley tent at Sturgis, removing shields from bikes and clothing, selling their bikes, etc. Just wondering your thoughts on this and how noticeable it was this year?

[@seattlesauce]

And fyi I grew up with Harley and am just really upset with the direction the company is taking.

This may or may not be the recent Sturgis video where I heard this but on one of them recently, you said our Lord's name in vain. I've enjoyed most of your videos but for me, and my hubby-if you're going to start doing that, we will need to unsubscribe. We're not perfect but we want to enjoy watching videos for families and that don't insult our Lord. As far as it being non trucking content-we prefer trucking but it's been nice when you've included scenery and vacations as well.
