                    Ride Montana
STAR Touring and Riding Assoc. presents the 11th Annual STAR DAYS in Billings, Montana. Sign up and rooms will be available online February 2, 2009. The SWAMPAZZ ride this year should be one of the best!
 "I now know why they call this land Big Sky Country. The horizon goes on forever and you can see as far as your eyes can focus. They could call this land Big Valley or Big Mountain if they wanted to. Every where you turn looks like a western painting. You'll meet friendly people as is the western tradition. If you see someone in a cowboy hat tip your helmet because it's not a fashion statement it's a way of life. Be ready to take a lot of pictures because there's one around every corner." Jody M.
