You should experience it in the winter. Yes one can ride year round out there. Famous for it's Chinook winds

Was assigned to DW in my last year..was also the base M/C Safety Officer..might have met you.
I took the M/C safety course in the late summer, early fall of 1983. The head instructor was a Captain, some what short in height, on what appeared to be a much too large GW. At the end of the course he told me I had acheived a perfect score, but he just had to dock me 5 points because he just couldn't allow a perfect score.
That wouldn't have been you would it?
I've visited the website, but not been to the actual site. If I'm ever passing through SD, I plan to stop there.... along with a visit to Wall Drug, because trip through South Dakota without a stop at Wall Drug doesn't count.
