The next in a list of exciting Sturgis Rally TV shows filmed at the Buffalo Chip airs this weekend. CMT will broadcast its “Orange County Choppers” episode entitled “The GAF Sturgis Bike” on Saturday, Nov. 23.

With the help of producer, Brandon Goehner, this irresistibly catchy song sprung to life and showed up in our inbox.
