Hey Mean Dream are you doing any sightseeing on the way? I should be somewhere in SD by Monday night and I am going to spend Tuesday tooling around Custer state park and the black hills. Wednesday is going through NE WY and arriving in RL that evening.
I wanted to take an extra day going out this year to do a little more sight seeing in the black hills area. The last two years I just blasted thru there, always meaning to ride in the Black hills but never doing it. I'll be leaving early Monday, I'm going from Illinois to the Great River road from Dubuque Iowa up to Minnesota, then cut across Iowa on #9, instead of my usual route of #90 thru Minnesota. First night then is in Sioux Falls, SD. My second night will most likely be in the Black hills/Rapid city area, so I can ride around that area more. The third day will be a little more of that area in the A.M. then onto Buffalo/Sheridan Area for the night. Friday, is the short trip to into Red Lodge. Thats the general plan as of tonight anyway.

First day is the longest at 550 to 600 miles
Second day is shorter at about 350 miles
Third day is 210, plus sight seeing.
Fourth day is 210 into Red Lodge
