STURGIS — If you don't ride it, it's not a motorcycle. It's that simple.
The Sturgis Motorcycle Rally draws all kinds of bikes and bikers to the Black Hills every year, including many high-dollar custom bikes that only see the light of the sun on short walks from trailer to display.

Lichter curated a custom bike art exhibit at the Buffalo Chip all week dedicated to this ethos.
