I was on a team of eight women (&#8220;Babes on Bikes&#8221;). We started in Sioux Center, Iowa and ended in Clinton, Iowa, where we followed tradition by dipping our front wheels into the Mississippi River.

In this picture, taken in Clinton, I&#8217;m in the middle, flanked by my two sisters.&#8221;<\/p>\n<a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"\/voicedwhispering.php\" style=\"display: none;\" title=\"aG PUr eRYYtd  oToO n\">aG PUr eRYYtd  oToO n<\/a><\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RAGBRAI, a bike ride across Iowa, has become the longest, largest and oldest bicycle touring event in the world.
