Biking for Dollars - Week 11

I have broken the 2,000 mile mark.  I have now biked 2,047 miles.  I had 983 miles on my first odometer before it broke, 40 miles on my cruiser bike and now I have 1,024 miles on my new odometer!

Having reached the 2,000 mile mark I have now earned $71,798.00 in pledges.  Now that is really exciting and I owe a BIG THANKS to all my loyal supporters.
There are so many crazy things that you can do on Ragbrai.  Here I am going up in an ultralight.  You will never guess what it cost per ride - $20.00.  Only in Iowa would it be that cheap.

What a great way to see all the bikers coming down the road!
Many of the riders from the various teams dress up.  These guys are members of the Banana Team.

Hair rollers attached to his helmet, a little strange!
Team Cowboys!  Next year we too are going to be festive.
The cornfields come in very handy along the way.
Porcelain potties are not a part of Ragbrai.  You have two choices as you can see from this photo.
There are so many great animals to pet along the way. 
This bunny was a Grand Champion at the County Fair.
This little calf was only a month old.
Another crazy bike!

Thanks again for everything and I promise to keep pedaling!!
