RAGBRAI seems like an awesome event! Please consider starting a thread about it, maybe in the TAVERN? My resume includes: Appalachian Trail, Georgia to Maine 2100+ miles, 5.5 months 1981. Bicycling Chapel Hill NC to Tampa Florida, July 1985. Inaugural Tampa Bay Marathon, under 4 hours, 12/15/85. Cape Code Ironman on my 30th birthday, 9/6/86. All Grins!
