Today I am going to be adding the videos that have come in since the Ride began. Each is very short but you get the idea of what it is like on the Ride. I will add others to the page as the Ride continues.

We just heard the great news that Rudy, Cochise and two of their friends will be traveling tomorrow. Bittersweet. (Gus High Eagles family)

Julia Hi-Eagle
Safe travels to my Auntie Emily High Eagle and Rudy.
They left down from Canupawakpa (Pipestone), Mb, Canada to join Dakota 38. I know it will be a very emotional time for family and friends but I know my Uncle Gus will be there in spirit riding with you all and smiling from above cause its the one thing he loves to do is ride.
