Waterloo to Dyersville, Iowa...86 miles.
Picture shown was taken at the restaurant we ate at in Waterloo; the whole ceiling was painted like this with spray cans--kind of an organized graffiti.
Dyersberg is where the movie Field of Dreams was filmed which was a flick about a time warp which allowed dead baseball players to visit Iowa and play ball in the present. Today we experienced distance warp which requires bikers to ride 86 miles on a day they thought was going to be a 61 miles.
We did luck out on the rain, heat and wind today. Rest day tomorrow. We've been asked numerous times if we're part of the cross Iowa bicycle ride which is called BRAG that starts next week--this ride is a big deal in this state and known about by bikers all around the country.

Actually it's called RAGBRAI, but I suspect you know that.....
Things are heating up in the neighborhood with the fight over parking rights on Beverly. It's driving us crazy.
However, Ad & I are riding our bikes regularly and very much enjoying it.
Keep pedaling!
