https://ragbrai.com/ yes that is the logo . They also have 15 billboards around Des Moines advertising it . I just hope they drop the use of ” 8 day ” .You only ride 7 days .

Nope – epic 8 day rolling festival

From the Ragbrai website.

What is RAGBRAI
RAGBRAI, Register’s Annual Great Bicycle Ride Across Iowa, is more than just a bike ride, it is an epic eight-day rolling festival of bicycles, music, food, camaraderie, and community. It is the oldest, largest, and longest multi-day bicycle touring event in the world.

Well, if you really think about it, it actually is 8 great days with 8 great host towns. Hence the phrase last year of Across Iowa in 8 Days or something like that. It really is an 8 day event, just 7 of them happen to be riding days.

Most riders arrive in the start town on Saturday – in fact, when I rode with Rainbow Cyclists of Waterloo/Cedar Falls, I’d be on the ‘early’ bus that got to the start town on Friday night! That way I had time to shake down the bike, usually with a short ride over to the river to do the wheel dip, and take in some of the activities that the start town had arranged for our benefit.

So yeah – eight day festival.

By the way – I’m crossing my fingers. The bones (compound fracture of the left femur below the knee, along with a broken left humerus and right radius) I broke at the beginning of June are pretty much completely healed.  I’m able to walk without a cane if I have to – although I’m not ready to throw it aside permanently, and if I can get my Vision recumbent reassembled and log some seat time on it, maybe I’ll be able to hook up with you-all on the road for a day or two…

I think the 8 day was supposed to look like 80 days around the world with the balloons I could be wrong but that’s what I thought.

Any idea what time registration opens on 11/15? Is it midnight or later in the day?
