Walt Ride 2012 taking shape.....Go West, young man

The general consensus seems to be that we should make a break for the Black Hills of South Dakota. After careful consideration, the executive board mulled over maps, charts, and diagrams drawn on cocktail napkins, and has decided that Walt Ride 2012 will be from June 15 to June 20. No superslab, this will be a backroad experience. Here is the breakdown for now:
June 15 - Red Wing to Gettysburg, SD
June 16 -Gettysburg to either Hill City or Custer (which will be used as the ride's base)
June 17 & 18 - ride the snot out of the Black Hills roads, and possible side trip to Devil's Tower in Wyoming.
June 19&20 - Head back east and for home.

We are leaning toward cost-effective hotels, i.e.  - mom and pop establishments.

And this year, we have a theme for the ride: Who Is Ben Ash? And why does he have a momument in the middle of nowhere?
Highlights to include a probable stop at the geographic center of the United States near Bell Fourche, SD.

Stay turned for more details...... That is all.
