They have had a dandy week, weather wise. Under 83 F and probably no rain. (just a few sprinkles here and I am 100 miles east of them today. They may have a significant head wind today.
Oh yeah, it IS that time of year, ain’t it? I’m a zero-mile rider the last few years. I’ve got a RAGBRAI-tested Cannondale sitting in my garage, too (my dad’s old castoff now that he has his fancy Motobecane). Worked up to a 50-miler in the dead of August back in 2013, though. Probably need to pump up the tires one of these days. Time, weather and toddler permitting. Still got the ridiculous-looking bibshorts somewhere...
Looks, good Gus. I am heading over to Grinnell in the morning to pick up RAGBRAI friends. I am glad to not be riding. Linda and I are now 12-15 mile riders.
