Longest hilliest of all the days. 82mi, 4,519ft. Today is show your school spirit day, so I added my Husky WOOF rain covers to my shoes, just to add even more Huskiness to my University of Washington kit, University of Washington bicycle, and Husky marching band music. Rode though Greenfield, the Iowa town that was destroyed by an EF4 tornado a few weeks back. The few pictures I took don't do the distinction justice. There is a giant swath of flat right through neighborhoods. there should be houses there but maybe you see a slab foundation. Sides of houses have tree shards driven in like machine guns. We gave a little support the rebuild effort and we found the stand from the local Omish and another group of ladies and had amazing rhubarb-strawberry pies. some reporter intviewd us by the name of Paris Barraza, maybe you can google her and fine her article about RAGBRAI. As the day went on it got hot. and I got slower, but cookies and fruit drink pulled us through.
