Last Thursday (July 28, 2011), my Father and I decided to do a day of RAGBRAI. I have never done this before and was a little nervous, I just didn't know what to expect. Before we went, I was thinking "Biking 57 MILES? That sounds uncomfortable..." But I love biking so I was excited to be surrounded by fellow bikers for a day. And let me ask you... Where are these bikers the rest of the year? I know some people travel from other cities and states for this, but there aren't this many bikers on the trails when I'm out! Anyway, here are some pictures from our adventure:
On the road before 7AM
First Town: Mitchellville, Ia
Second Town: Colfax, IA
Hilly Ride!
Third Town: Baxter, IA
Lunch Time: 10 AM!!!
So much good food: Smoothies, Pulled Pork Sandwiches, Peach Pie, Watermelon, Homemade Chocolate Ice Cream, Sweat Corn, Nachos :)
There were crazy outfits and a guy skateboarding...
Last Stop before the End: Rock Creek State Park
END: Grinnell, IA
We did it!
I'm already excited for next year... :)
