Any one cycle this area? We are thinking about riding through as we cross Nebraska late summer.

The High Trestle Trail in central Iowa is a must ride if you are passing through

i've ridden thru the sand hills on hwy 2. It's very beautiful. Camping is not a problem, ever. The towns people are great. Highway 2 follows the Union Pacific rail line so you will see lots of coal cars coming from Wyoming. You will probably hear them in the middle of the night, also.
