CAMP BLACK HILLS BDR X RIDE, SOUTH DAKOTA, JULY 24-29
WHAT AND WHEN
Come ride with us the BLACK HILLS BDR Ride X with CAMP, in the wonderful Black Hills National Forest.
BDR X are dual sport rides that form a big loop, and they can be ridden by adventure bikes or lighter enduro/dual sport. The Black Hills BDR-X is the perfect introduction to a BDR in the midwest. With striking landscapes ranging from wide-open prairie, dense pine forests, and tall aspen trees, this 355-mile loop comprises three distinct sections and encompasses all the elements for your next adventure.
Enjoy a plethora of gravel and dirt roads, challenging two-track, and some of the best pavement you’ve ever ridden as you make way through historical towns in an area that shaped the west.
Mount Rushmore, Needles Highway, Iron Mountain Road, Spearfish Canyon, Cement Ridge Lookout Tower, and the Custer Wildlife Loop are some of the many incredible features dotting the landscape of this scenic route.
There is the opportunity to have your bike transported back and forth from the Chicagoland at a fee - please drop a message about this at checkout. First come, first serve. You can also take advantage of CAMP Membership Plus, which includes 4 days of motorcycle rental. Up to you.
