I thought the whole point of RAGBRAI was to see how many pancakes or slices of pie you can eat? Have I been doing it all wrong?
Cruising along and just checking out bikes and chatting with random folks is a definite benefit, though! It's not isolated to RAGBRAI, of course. I ran into Bike Forums lurker Mike Kelly on his lovely Fiorelli at last year's Hilly Hundred ride in Bloomington, IN Great bike, great guy, and a fun chat!
Apologies for not getting a shot of Micheal himself!
