your supposed to throw your phone away before the trip like they did on wild hogs. go ahead live on the edge don't bring it.

Cell phones at Sturgis are items that are supposed to stay in the bowels of the saddlebags, to be used only for emergencies.

Nothing wrong with having a cellphone at Sturgis, but you surely don't want to be married to the dam thing.

I think most cell phones work around sturgis and the bigger towns in SD. Now get down in the canyons and its a different story. I have US cellular and it was fine at the chip and glencoe that hole area

Mine worked just fine and it was nice being able to send pics to buds. I do not believe during the concerts you could hear of feel your phone anyway LOL. ZZ rocked the place.
