Push through it! Sometimes a nice shower feels great if there have been hot days preceding it.

Started riding in 2003 – this year will be #18 consecutive. Looking at the Iowa County Map and cross-referencing it to the past RAGBRAI overnight towns grid it appears we have stayed in or gone through all 99 counties.

Not so much anger as frustration. Even holding the rides on separate weeks has caused some splitting of traditional teams – making it more difficult to ensure there are enough riders to support using a team bus on either of the rides.

Although I guess it can be interpreted one way or another, it seems the Iowa Bicycle Coalition has made a choice (nowhere in the post did they mention that there could be 2 choices). An excerpt from the Iowa Bicycle Coalition’s Facebook post on October 17th: “The Iowa Bicycle Coalition and Iowa Bicycling Action Fund are endorsing the newly formed…[Read more]

One good outcome: the East starting town will get the benefit of what West starting towns have had instead of the ‘can’t wait to be done so I can leave and go home’. I’ve always felt the end towns were at a disadvantage.

Anyone know when the support route maps will be online?

Lawnchair Man – you are right – beer and chops do go together! The Iowa Beer Bus is usually set up at the same place as Mr. Pork Chop but won’t be on Sunday because of the Pott County decision (unless Pott County changes their denial :)).

I looked the Kaddy Rack during the Expo but didn’t pull the trigger; considering purchasing the double tube option. Anyone have pros/cons regarding the product? https://kaddyrack.com/

Also not hearing as much from people going to the Route Announcement party as much as previous years.
stuckinmizzou replied to the topic 2019 Route Predictions in the forum RAGBRAI XLVII – 2019 1 year, 1 month ago
I’m never right so if you stay away from my predictions you’ll be fine: Missouri Valley, Atlantic, Panora, Ankeny, Grinnell, Vinton, Dyersville, Bellevue

Thanks for providing us with more insight, TJ! Enjoy the ride! 17 straight for me in 220 DAYS! (and 45 until the Route Announcement Party!)

If you get a chance, listen to The Forward podcast from a couple of years ago when Lance rode on RAGBRAI – any time he gets a chance to put in a plug for RAGBRAI, he does – he encourages people to experience it. And he always makes a point that when he was going through his issues, TJ was the first person who contacted him and told him that he is…[Read more]

On Friday one of our teammates and her son were able to join us in Sigourney to ride for the day. She is in the process of moving to Oregon so she wasn’t able to be with us all week. She asked for someone to drive her car to Kalona so she could go back and pick it up after getting into Iowa City. I volunteered to find a place for her car. I was…[Read more]
