The absolute best thing about RAGBRAI so far was the slip and slide about 35 miles into the 73 miles yesterday. Off to the left, I probably would have stopped but Cheng made sure we stopped and I’m glad we did. 50 feet of downhill on my belly, 3 times into a puddle. Best thing ever. The riding was relatively dull but fine; the weather cooperates and was mild and threatened to rain all day but never did.
