RAGBRAI!

Thursday Morgan and I rode a day of RAGBRAI.

We went down to Chillicothe Wednesday night and Morgan's dad Jim took us to Centerville Thursday morning. We met up with the rest of the Team Flamingo Team by the YMCA and then started our 50 mile ride to Ottumwa.


The route took us over the Rathburn dam. Here is a an idea of what the road looked like at any given moment.



We got another cyclist to take our picture.


Moravia, IA is home to the author that is known for the tall tale of Paul Bunyan!


This is the city park in Blakesburg, IA. It was our big stop for lunch.



The route into Ottumwa took us right to Morgan's 2nd cousin Doris' house. Jim and Shari brought the kids there to meet us and pick us up. The kids LOVED giving cyclists  high-five and welcoming them to Ottumwa.







End of the line!
