HUGE money maker!! I do not have a problem with the rally. It is just that we have a very popular gas station directly behind our house so we hear the round-the-clock roar of the bikes until it is over.
This year is a big year for the rally as it is the 70th anniversary. There are a lot of big name performers at the Buffalo Chip this year too. None of which interest me personally but they are appearing nonetheless. No one ever checks with me on who performs but still. Hehe.
