Here it is, RAGBRAI Day Six; and I haven’t mentioned Slip ‘N Slide yet. In fact, I never even noticed any during my ride. Although they look like fun, they probably aren’t wise for someone my age.

I did, however, discover another version of Slip ‘N Slide: my sleeping pad slid all over the floor of the tent; and the sleeping bag slid around on top of the sleeping pad. I never knew what might end up under me. That was enough Slip ‘N Slide for me!

RAGBRAI Day Six saw us going through Fairbank; and here I turned farmer! I never dreamed that I’d one day become a tractor driver. 

This was a shortish day; but even so, I arrived at Pork City later than I would have liked. And it was hard to believe that this was the last evening of RAGBRAI.

Last Evening 🧳

I spent a good bit of time that last evening packing my duffle bags. After a week of trying to cram everything into those bags, I knew there wouldn’t be time in the morning. Next year I’ll get me a sixty-liter bag!

Since the flood of Night Four, I was also hoping for another night without a downpour. One deluge was more than enough.. At least I never got caught in a downpour with lightning while on the road.

RAGBRAI went by in a hurry; and it was hard to believe that we were to the last evening already. One last night of Slip ‘N Slide in my own tent!

ABOUT ME

I began this website primarily as a way to present the story of how I accomplished a century ride on an adult tricycle. Other riders of adult trikes might want to know whether it’s possible. It sure is! You can read all about it in My Story.

I live in New Orleans; and  retired in January 2023. More time for cycling!
