Here is a recap of Day 1 of the 2026 Route Inspection. Our day started in Onawa, we then visited Turin, Soldier, Dunlap (Meeting Town), Earling, Westphalia and ended our day in Harlan. We biked about 60 miles and experienced a total elevation of about 3,500 feet of climbing today! With us on this episode is fellow Ride Inspector Scott Matter from the Dream Team.
