They love to rock. They love to ride. They love to party. The women who call the Buffalo Chip home during the Sturgis Motorcycle Rally know their way around a good time and are nothing short of badass. If you’ve got it in your head that the Sturgis Buffalo Chip® is just a place for old biker dudes, think again. It’s a playground for everyone! Let’s meet some of the ladies who got down at the Buffalo Chip in 2022…

Miss Buffalo Chip Contestants

Make no mistake about it…the luscious ladies of the International Bikini Team are some of the hardest-working girls of Sturgis, and the legendary party at the Buffalo Chip just wouldn’t be the same without them. It seems everywhere you look you find these beautiful babes greeting campground guests, pouring a stiff drink at your favorite watering hole or, of course, strutting their stuff across the Wolfman Jack Stage during the annual Miss Buffalo Chip Pageant

In the case of this photo, we’ve got sass, class and a little bit of ass.

Creativity was on full display each afternoon at Bikini Beach during the Homemade Bikini Contest. Ladies with a “Do It Yourself” attitude put their skills to the test for a chance to win prizes. Former Buffalo Chip Poster Model Mai Richards understood the assignment.

 

Easyriders Cover Models

 

It’s hard to imagine biker lifestyle today without Easyriders Magazine. Since the early ‘70s, the magazine has been a mirror for motorcycle culture, featuring righteous rides and rowdy rallies. Of course, all the issues came locked and loaded with some of the most head-turning cover photos of models and bikes you could imagine. Recent cover models Amanda Pizziconi (left) and Lauren Ann (right) represented the magazine for its exciting return to print throughout the week at the Big Engine Bar.
