I have ridden a Surly Cross Check across Iowa twice and many more non-RAGBRAI miles. Not one problem yet and MSRP $950-$1150

Chris Harbaugh replied to the topic Footwear Suggestions? Other gear? in the forum RAGBRAI XLVII – 2019 1 year, 12 months ago
I suggest a flat pedal (like Raceface Chester) and a comfortable pair of Vans.

Quite the story Ken and that would be a good way to go out. May even make the side of a milk carton. I would like to have my name on a set of tires but I have to settle for throwback Chicago Bears or Michigan football jerseys.

Ken,
I am checking out Maxxis Hookworm tires (29×2.5). I have seen some good things and I believe $45 per tire. Also interested what others have to say.

Chris Harbaugh replied to the topic Packet in the forum RAGBRAI XLVI – 2018 2 years, 7 months ago
Well said Ken! I should be getting one packet but I received two confirmation emails with two different tracking numbers. This makes me twice as excited to see what comes and get on the road!

I live in Jefferson and someone told my wife she thought this was happening. My wife said no way, they would never do that but the news broke the next day.

Hairball is booked in Maquoketa on Friday, July 27 (Eastern IA). Not saying they wouldn’t play in Jefferson but I can’t find anything verifying. The casino opens up the music playlist a bit and it will be interesting to see their level of involvement. Hairball did play an outdoor concert last summer at the casino.

I believe Gary Clark Jr. will be playing at a music festival in Iowa the week after RAGBRAI. Maybe one of the overnight towns could bring him to IA a little early?
