Full Throttle Saloon

A couple of weeks ago we took a ride into Sturgis.  We wanted to see the old and the new Full Throttle Saloons.  They've cleaned up a lot of the fire damage and let you walk around the grounds of the old one. 

The new one is closed and under construction.  We went in past the no trespassing sign just to get a couple of pictures.  It's WAY out of town, past Bear Butte going north on Highway 79.  I've heard they have an RV campground here, and are building a stage for a big music venue to compete with the Buffalo Chip.   I hope they do well, being so far out of town.   Here are some pictures:

They kept the old rider at the front!
