Get a feel for it, then chuck most other events for 2020 and do this. On my bucket list.
if people ride the route in fewer days than a week, they are really missing the point of RAGBRAI as all the towns along the route plan activities, have food, etc on the best the ride passes thru town. And the designated overnight towns have music and events.
if people ride ahead, they are just riding across a state on their own and could do that anywhere at anytime.
