What was it, or who was it, that got you to do your very first RAGBRAI? For Gary, it was retirement which meant he would have more time to train, and also seeing that the LI route was going to end in the very town he grew up in, Burlington! He grew up in Iowa but moved to California after college, so coming back after all those years made for a memorable week on the bike. On this episode Gary is going to tell us about his first RAGBRAI, and his experience of all that Iowa has to offer!
