My son-in-law rides RAGBRAI. Make sure you have a bike you are comfortable on, that's as important as any other factor. If you are not in shape now, you will be at the end of the run. Good luck and kick a**!

To me that sounds like fun and torture in equal parts! Best of luck with your training

Be prepared for the heat, too. But I bet it's a fun ride challenge!

I've done some other week long rides in the area but never RAGRBAI. It is also known as the "Registers Annual Greater Beer Run Across Iowa". Make sure you have a quiet campsite if you plan to sleep through the night. :)

@Millerm, I had mentioned to my coworker that it sounded fun when he described it a while ago, and then yesterday he called me to say that he got us tickets! So I was going whether or not I wanted to, lol!

You are going to be in great shape. I agree with Phooka.

460 miles. Wow. That is impressive. The farthest I have ridden was 150 miles over 2 days. Boy, was my butt sore after that. Good luck.

Well, if the B stands for B, maybe it won't be so bad after all!

Sounds great. Wish I was twenty years younger. Nice goal to work towards.

Stupid autocorrect Ragbrai

Beware the rhubarb pie and homemade ice sold by church ladies at every town along the route. They are actually Darth Vader's disciples. I've gained weight on rides like this in the past LOL. :)
