Tonight we camp on the front yard of Mike and Tricia’s in Emmetsburg. And it’s near Five Island Lake so we had more fun in the water.
In fairly early for the in-town festivities
The route was only 40 miles and it gave us plenty of time to set up camp and check out the town. Emmetsburg was named after the Irish nationalist Robert Emmet and was settled by potato famine immigrants from Ireland around 1852.
Yet another Bike Club?
The Psycho Bikers may be a club or it basically sums up the whole damn group of 10K+ cyclists who invade Iowa every year at this time.
Not everyone has the luck of the Irish
On can only assume that her bike wheel needed fixing and she had to walk into the town to find one of the bike mechanics on tour with the Ragbrai. Note: The people who fix bikes on this ride are the Best In The World!
