There are a million and one reasons people flock to the annual Sturgis Motorcycle Rally. Naturally, all the beautiful bikes, scenic roads and huge concerts are high up on the list. But there’s another activity that’s a MUST for every trip, and you won’t find on a single event schedule. It’s people watching.

See, when thousands of bikers gather together in a place like the Sturgis Buffalo Chip®, you’re sure to come across things you don’t see every day. Some people will shock you. Some will make you laugh. Others will make you do a double take. Here are a few of those people from the party at the Chip in 2020.
