I find it odd that neither ride is promoting this event whatsoever. Do they not want people to come?

Interesting that there is nothing about this on either ride’s Facebook page yet.

I have no desire to spend 14 days riding across Iowa. One week is plenty for me.

This is the first year I’ve seen it be an issue with so many people.
hnschipper replied to the topic Iowa’s Ride new dates in the forum Miscellaneous 2 months, 1 week ago
IR’s Facebook post says 100% refunds due to the date change.

Yeah, RAGBRAI has never shared registration numbers. I don’t see that changing.

I’m having a hard time figuring out what this has to do with RAGBRAI. Enlighten us?

I can get to the FAQ by going directly to the IR site (and not through the link posted on Facebook. I don’t know why you can’t.

I posted the link where I got it from. IR posted the link in a Facebook post this morning. I went to the FAQ page and there it was.

IR addresses the ISP issue on their new FAQ page.
hnschipper replied to the topic Which Ride Will "Win"? in the forum RAGBRAI XLVII – 2019 3 months ago
I feel like our parents are getting divorced and the riders are caught in the middle of the custody battle, having to choose sides. I don’t want to choose sides. I just want to ride my bike.

These numbers are actually released in May, before the ride. It’s numbers based on registrations.
The male/female ratio doesn’t seem off to me at all. I’ve stood in countless shower lines where the men’s line is significantly longer than the women’s line.
