If traveling across SD this is the way to go. I rode it in its entirety in 2012 on a cross country ride. 10/10 would recommend if going through the state.
That's interesting. I was advised in no uncertain terms while touring in 2008 to avoid riding a bicycle solo through the South Dakota reservations when faced with the option of southern SD or northern Nebraska. Nebraska definitely wasn't a highlight but I chose it for safety reasons at the time.
