Congrats to all of you that competed/participated in this ride. It looks incredible for sure! To the rider that sat out one day, I wouldn't be disappointed in sitting one day out, sounds like a very difficult time, with the record heat and humidity that the midwest has been having.
It's also uplifting to me, to see this,,
Yeah, on RAGBRAI, anyone going over 14-15 mph is roundly jeered for being a 'racer.'
Guess I'd be one of the "Racers" ! COOL!

I do have a difficult time keeping it under 17-18mph it seems. (Well, at least on a 24 mile group ride) we kept that pace very easily.....
Again, Congratulations on the completion of this ride,, it deserves much more than a piece of pie, eat the whole damned thing! LOL and a half gallon of ice cream to go with it!
