We left the badlands and again pointed our front fenders West. We decided to take a little shortcut to get to the road we wanted. Mistake! Carol and Jack warned us about this...pavement to crushed gravel, to really soft, deep sandy gravel and all in the middle of nowhere. It was far from everything, yet we all fared well. Off to Rapid City for some fuel, and the canyon road.
After leaving Rapid City, it was on o spearfsh canyon. Although crowded this week, it is a beautiful motorcycle road. The canyon narrows down to little more than a road and brooks width, with many twists and curves. Looking up at the canyon walls can be a little distracting, but well worth the effort. Near the upper end, it opens up just before the city of Spearfish, at the western end of the city. A nice place for a DQ refreshment stop!
