Ride Report

In mid-July 2018, three-wheeled riders from all across the country headed out to converge on Deadwood, SD for the largest three-wheeled event in the country. The 4th Annual 3 Wheeler Motorcycle Rally in Deadwood featured rides and scenery as seen during the famous Sturgis motorcycle rally held every year - but without the huge crowds. The SRA Great Salt Lake Chapter had several large groups ride up and attend this ever-growing event! If you missed it, they are already taking reservations for 2019! Don't miss it!!!! A report and photos from the 2018 event can be found by clicking the D3WR logo.
