What do 60,000 bicyclists look like? Ragbrai - unarguably the largest, longest and oldest organized bike ride in the world! Registers Annual Great Bike Ride Across Iowa

Hi Jan & Mark, Dubuque, Iowa native here. So nice to see the Hawkeye state in all it's glory. When RAGBRAI came through Ames about 5 years ago, I was in Ames visiting my employer's pasta production plant. My coworkers & I took a 30 minute break from our meeting to go outside and watch some of the bikers go by. It was quite a sight. Iowa is certainly not flat, especially once you get about 20 miles from Dubuque. Now that both of my parents are gone, I no longer get to Iowa very often, but Iowa will always have a place in my heart.

Jan - My wife and I always enjoy your videos and are looking forward to moving there. I am also from Iowa (Southwest) and did Ragbrai for the first time this year - we are in KCMO now. I actually have a video of our shenanigans, but it was a great ride. Thanks for the time and effort you put into your videos - the information is very helpful.

Enjoyed RAGBRAI in 2017 - what a great experience ! Scheduled to do again in 2024. Enjoy your informative videos. This time next year should be making a decision on our next home. The Villages is definitely at top of list. Keep up good work and getting the most from life.

I just looked online...the last time RAGBRAI ended in Dubuque was 2010. It has ended in Davenport 4 times since 2010. Dubuque is definitely overdue to be the final RAGBRAI stop in 2024.

Laura. It was the 50th Anniversary of Ragbrai so the route was the very first route!

Hi Jan, long time viewer . Wondering where people sleep at night .. are there tents or do people lodge in hotels and also wondering if e -bikes are allowed?

@thevillages365 10 ай бұрын

We saw a few e bikes. Most people tent - overnight towns sometimes has people let you set up tent in their yard - take a shower - We slept in beds each night because our daughter took us to the start and picked us up each night. Ragbrai hauls your tents and clothes if you have a ticket (tag). Overnight parking is usually in a park or close to a school for showering/toilet facilities.
