RAGBRAI – Day 5

Written by – July 24, 2009

One day out of the week RAGBRAI offers an extra loop to riders who wish to go over 100 miles for the day. I was debating it up until the turn-off but then decided my legs wouldn’t like me. So I suck to the normal route and covered 77 miles with a 14 mph avg. Not much to report from the towns as I didn’t stay long in each. The previous night had some storms and I caught some pretty cool hail on the side of the road. Looks like snow in the middle of July. Did get a quick nap in Unionville and was impressed with the welcome into Blakesburg. Two more days left and I’ll get to sleep on a bed again…can’t wait!
