The US state of South Dakota roared with motorcycles and crowds as the annual Sturgis Motorcycle Rally kicked off, with mostly mask-less rallygoers packed shoulder-to-shoulder at bars and rock shows, despite a rise in COVID-19 cases in the state.Organisers expect at least 700,000 people during the 10-day event that is a rendezvous for bikers, who connect over their love for motorcycles. For some, it's a once-in-a-lifetime goal to make it to Sturgis; others faithfully make the pilgrimage year after year."It's just a great big family atmosphere, everybody's out here for the same purpose — we all love motorcycles," said Aaron Harper. "If you're a motorcyclist, you have to see it at least once in your life."
