Thousands of bikers from all over the country are descending on the Shuswap this week.
They’re taking part in one of the biggest motor bike rallies the province and the town of Salmon Arm have ever seen: Sturgis North.
The event has a long tradition south of the border, and this is the first time it has come north.
Organizers hope the event will become an annual tradition in Salmon Arm.
The rally also features a large music festival with acts like Steppenwolf and Nazareth.
Sturgis organizers have forked over $40,000 for policing costs but RCMP say that cost could potentially double, leaving taxpayers on the hook.
