Avoid Logging When Populating a Table

I recently ran into a brick wall while trying to populate a skinny table with just over 130 million rows, in that the log filled up way before the table did (I was down to about 40gb free on my local machine). This is a scenario where I have multiple recursive CTEs preceeding a INSERT .. SELECT FROM used to create those rows. To get around this problem, I created a stored procedure that outputs the results of those CTEs as a straightforward SELECT, then I redirect that output to a text file via a BCP batch file. I then BCP that file back into my destination table, thereby bypassing the extraneous logging that, in this case, is just a waste of space and time.
