I followed the Big Boy for a bit as it left Boone. It didn’t leave Boone on time, so sitting and waiting for it took a lot longer than I expected. I at first took some pictures looking south as they prepared it to leave, then I camped on top… Read More »Big Boy: Boone Morning

After RAGBRAI left Saint Marys it headed to Indianola. That was the halfway town for the day. It was also the second to last town I followed RAGBRAI too for 2024. Indianola is a much bigger town than Saint Charles and Saint Marys and it was definitely more of a… Read More »RAGBRAI: Indianola
