Just a couple pics to show what a group of Nomads look like for those that couldn't make it to Custer.

Dan Lund up to his old tricks again, only this time without his bike.

It is a "PERDY" site to see a bunch of Nads together, thanks for sharing.

NICE!!!!! That tower is a pain to capture i guess. i was there in 05 and it was a gray then, so contrast was a killer... My shots are worse than this one, but my wife drew it for me, only her way..

She made it like it shouyld be all celtic knotts and gods!

There were 2 rides at the same time. Some went to Devils Tower; some did the Badlands ride at the same time.

Every picture that shows bikes (on the highway and parked at the entrance to Devil's Tower) is a Nomad. It is just that they are not all lined up and easy to count -- but I believe we had 38 on the ride together.

Here's a closer pic of Devil's Tower. A really stange sight to see in person. You can't see them; but there are two base-jumpers sitting on the edge of the top with their feet dangling over it. Not exactly a comfortable feeling for me -- even with a parachute.

Believe me Markus... no one had to give Dan any ideas! http://s2.images.proboards.com/grin.gif

At the Badlands we found a couple places where he was seriously considering putting his bike. The only thing stopping him was the number of people around those areas and the fact that it is a national park -- with federal rangers -- with strong handcuffs, and a jail. ;)

Even that almost did not stop him. I could see his thoughts churning. :)

It was too bad you couldn't have made it. Overall it was a great trip and lots of fun riding.
