On arrival we found out that this is one of the few places in this part of Montana that has any significant body of water to speak of. But the place does have a kind of stark beauty as in evidenced in the photo&#8217;s below.<\/h4>\n<h4>On our way to Tongue River we stopped in the awesome town of Deadwood, South Dakota and found ourselves in the middle of the largest collection of bikers on the planet! There were literally tens of thousands of these mostly older, overweight, white dudes on their hogs. We paid a quick visit to the Deadwood cemetery, where we saw Wild Bill Hickok&#8217;s grave along with Calamity Jane and other noted dead western heroes.<\/h4>\n<p><strong>Bikers lined up on Deadwood&#8217;s main drag.<\/strong>.<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-203 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/myriad.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/Deadwood-cycle-mania.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1440\" srcset=\"https:\/\/myriad.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/Deadwood-cycle-mania.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/myriad.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/Deadwood-cycle-mania-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/myriad.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/Deadwood-cycle-mania-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/myriad.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/Deadwood-cycle-mania-1024x768.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Oh my God!
