Sturgis, S.D., May 14—The Sturgis Buffalo Chip is proud to announce Daredevil Wednesday, a day of daring and exciting stunts to take place during the Sturgis summer music and motorcycle festival. For the first time ever, a “Calling All Daredevils” contest is also taking place where daredevils nationwide can submit their own stunts to be selected, big or small, to join a day of history being made. Multiple stunts are currently already planned to attempt setting World Records, making for a memorable experience for all daredevils and Sturgis Rally attendees alike. Daredevil Wednesday takes place August 7, 2013, at the CrossRoads, the Buffalo Chip’s free public access area during the Sturgis Motorcycle Rally. Daredevils interested in submitting a stunt can do so at www.buffalochip.com/EVENTS/SignatureEvents/DaredevilWednesday.aspx.
Guinness Book of World Records officiates will be onsite to substantiate planned world-record-breaking stunts including Toby Baker’s and Clint Ewing’s head-to-head attempt to bring back the title of “Longest Motorcycle Ride Through a Tunnel of Fire” to the United States. Stuntman Patch McGillicutty will also attempt to set a world record of over 91 mph inside a Wall of Death on his motorcycle. An additional unique event will include the American National UniMotorcycle Society’s UniMotorcycle Drag Races that intend to bring back the one-wheeled motorcycling drag race speed title from Russia. Additional events, stunts and highlights will be announced as Calling All Daredevils submissions are added to the spectacular day of events.
“This day should be one of the most exciting and memorable events of the entire Sturgis rally,” says Rod Woodruff, president of the Sturgis Buffalo Chip. “There has never been a more thrilling opportunity for daredevils and excited onlookers to experience a day that will, quite literally, go down in the history books, not only of Guinness, but also the Sturgis Motorcycle Rally.”
