Every year since 1938 the Jackpine Gypsies Motorcycle Club has been putting on a rally, which is now titled Sturgis Rally (or Sturgis Bike Week) held in Sturgis, South Dakota. This event takes place every year in the first week of August and while it used to mainly focus on motorcycle races and stunts it now offers everything from races, to an annual Mayor’s ride, to concerts and the latest motorcycle debuts from Harley Davidson and other companies.
