yes. They will be cleverly disguised as a cornfield.
But you must be AWARE of Corn Bears. Their main diet is ears of corn, but just the same I wouldn’t go too far into the cornfield. Most farmers put up signs that say “Beware of Corn Bears” if they know that there’s a bear or two in their corn. Cheers and have a safe ride across Iowa. 8-O
Cornfields – soybean fields. know the difference :-P
Ohhh, David. With a question like that, you’re going to have to ride with Team Olive Oil (“Extra Virgin”).
The corn’s tall enough, the soybean’s ain’t!!!!
Yes – don’t miss the orientation session on Saturday – they have a 1/2 hour segement on crop identification. Remember – you don’t have to outrun the corn bear, just outrun your friend (always take on with you into the field – learn from the women)
If you do need to stop to use those porta potties disguised as cornfields between towns, please don’t just stand at the edge and pee into the field. At least go a few rows in.
Early in the week, men walk into the cornfield, later in the week, they just walk over and point at it, LOL!!!!!!
I’ll have an answer in a minute but first I need to wipe the tears from my eyes.
I just plan on holding all week, that’s my strategy :)
Beware of Poo Mountain…….
Congratulations DD2!!! You have asked a question never before seen on this forum. Now, seriously, bring a bit of TP with you, in your jersey pocket in case there is no roll of that stuff on a fence post before you step between the rows.
RIDE RIGHT (Somewhere I have the appropriate photo but no time to search)
I DO REMEMBER the first time I laid eyes on Poo Mountain. My first thought was HOW and then WHY….
RIDE RIGHT
