Jack Pine Gypsies Hill Climb in Sturgis South Dakota

[EveryMilesAMemory]

Thanks to Jana Thompson, of Thompson Photography (http://jmthompsonphoto.smugmug.com/), we got to go cover the Jack Pine Gypsies Hill Climb in Sturgis this past week

Great fun to Watch, but I felt bad for Jana, I mean we all got covered in South Dakota Dirt, but she happened to be downwind from most of the dirt and came home COVERED in the red dirt. I mean she took off her sunglasses and looked like a Raccoon.

I know I had to scrub the floor of the shower to get the pile of mud to go down after showering the dirt off....LOL

Here are a few Images and the Rest of my stuff can be seen here on the Full Gallery (http://everymilesamemory.smugmug.com/gallery/9219861_YUAQY#P-1-15)

Hence why Jana was so covered in Dirt :D This was one of many times she got covered like this. Who said covering these events was easy?

Climbing a 300' hill in under 7 seconds on a 1400cc bike should qualify for a rider getting their card in the "NUTS" department

Thanks for the comments!
