I've been thinking about doing RAGBRAI, not this summer, but the following summer, on a fixed gear. Want to do it with me? It will be fun.

This is really all a big excuse to fulfill my life goal of setting up a bike with Scott AT-4 Pros and it actually sort of making sense.

Please send all of your great reasons of why I'm an idiot directly to my inbox.

yeah, lots of flats too. IIRC, if it's a northern route it's hillier. https://www.flickr.com/photos/langston/albums/72157627343629070

I do still occasionally dream of those 20x2 pacelines through Rockwell-esque farm country
