Thanks for watching! Be sure to subscribe for more of our crazy adventures :) Let us know in the comments if you were there for the ride, and have any ideas for our next trip!
Very cool looks like you all had FUN. I am planning on riding next year for the 50th it will be my 1st RAGBRAI 🙂Not so sure about the camping part I think an RV is the way to go
Hey love the video I’ll be there next year funny I watched your video then watched Ryan vanduzers day 2 video from Ragbrai and there’s Em in the video snagging her corn necklace lol
Thank you for sharing, it was very well done. Go Pro? great sound. Live in Atlanta now but grew up about 10 miles from Newell so lots of old friends involved. Hoping to ride next year for the 50th. Safe travels my friends.....
Met Nom last year. Talked for a bit while we rode, only to figure out a guy he knew in KC, is a guy I went to High School with. Now he shows up in a great video from this years ride! Well done!
Hey! I remember you guys! I was the farmer in your picture of faces! Will you resend it please? It never went through :( Glad you guys had as much fun as we did! My legs were so tired after that last day of hills on my single speed!!!
@@SpenceandEm Thanks!! I literally cried when we got to the downhill miles! So grateful for downhills hahaha! Did you take a shower at the pool with the red mushroom/tree waterfall? It was ICE cold. Ice.
@@SpenceandEm We should have just accepted swimming in the pool as clean enough because those were seriously the coldest showers of my whole life. I'm pretty sure I ran out of there with soap still on my body. Can't wait to see our picture! Thanks for documenting your journey, it's helping keep the experience alive! We rode across Iowa!!!
Okay... ...I nearly fell out of my chair when he did the blue wavy thing. Still laughing typing this. Hilarious. Will make the 2023 on my way back from CA (riding GA to CA turnaround to NYC then Europe) barring any nastiness which may visit me (as Ryan would say "No windies, no flatties, no crashies!). Stay safe!
Dang Nam, I have the same Triangle Safety jersey! My only problem is Folks in South Central Mississippi get dizzy looking at it which cause them to stay behind me driving really slow instead of passing in the next lane! ja ja ja Good job Guys and Gal! OORAH Semper Fi and Can Do
@@SpenceandEm Due to back and neck problems, I now ride a two wheeled recumbent bike, plus I will be pulling a trailer. I am a Bagger, like to have all my stuff with me. Stay in shape. I will be hitting the GYM this winter big time.
Looks like you had a great, overall, experience. I am tempted to try the ride but there are soooooo many people, seems like it would be a little overwhelming?? Long lines for everything? Cheers and thanks for sharing ;
Being from Philly and then moving out to Seattle and now smack dab in the middle of the USA in Iowa, I'm amazed by how Iowa has to offer. The only thing I miss is my Wawa and Sheetz. I'm craving my hoagie made fresh to order at like 1 am in the mornings
An interesting fact for the day is that the reason Northeast Iowa has such a different landscape than the rest of Iowa is because it is part of the Driftless Area, an area that was not covered by ice during the last ice age.
Read a little about this while we were finishing up our RAGBRAI. Our bus rendezvous point in Lansing was at the Driftless Area Education Center. Spencer actually filmed his ride recap from their back porch!
You can bring your own tents, do your own set-up & take-down, & put your tents/bags on the truck each morning; that truck/shuttle is included in your basic RAGBRAI entry fee. Then some people ride with a “team” with its own accompanying bus or RV (to get a shower, supplies, etc). Or if you want the camping experience but with a few more amenities, you can pay for a spot with one of the charter companies (like Pork Belly) that basically creates its own mobile campground: they set up and take down all the tents, provide showers, provide coffee in the morning, some meals and various other “luxuries” of home while still living in a tent city.
Loved meeting Nam!!
Hey Duzer! It was a great week! Good bumping into you! Hopefully, I'll make an appearance in your RAGBRAI video too!!! 😉 Good luck in Leadville!
I recognized Nam from Ryan’s video then I found this one! Loved getting an inside look on your adventures!!!!
@@rubytangelo5284 Hi Ruby! Just FYI... there's another cameo appearance in Ryan's video. Did you see who is the last one grabbing some corn-beads?...😉
Very cool looks like you all had FUN. I am planning on riding next year for the 50th it will be my 1st RAGBRAI 🙂Not so sure about the camping part I think an RV is the way to go
Hope to see you next year then! You can look into finding a team so someone can drive the RV along the route for you!
HAHAA i love the wacky wavy inflatable tube man
Probably one of my favorite parts of the whole trip 😂 -emily
Nice video. Thanks for sharing your experience! Such a great event.
Thanks! It was so much fun

@@SpenceandEm I bet looks like a great time keep up the positive vibes

Yes blue man HILARIOUS!!
Pretty darn cool!
It was!!
The more videos I watch of this the more obsessed I get, this is so epic! Wanna do Ragbrai!!!
Do it next year and join us! It's definitely obsessive once you do it as well haha
Great job. It was fun, even though my neck gave me fits. 11 years done for myself. Might do it next year.

Nice job. Cool map. Need to get one. 👍
Thank you!
absolute beast
Thanks!
I think my team took a picture with your friend at the patch stop on the 100 mile day. Someone from Ragbrai took our picture
Hahaha! I'm always up for a photo op!!!
Casey's is your best friend on RAGBRAI. I did the ride in 2012. And I will do it again in 2223. Just have to get into shape this winter.
Looking forward to seeing you next year!

Great video guys! I'm trying to talk my buddie into doing this with me next year.
Thanks so much! Hope your buddy joins!
Congrats and I hope to see you all at the next one or on the road! OORAH
WE WERE THERE TOO!!! AND WE LUVEED CHRIS CAKES
ITS SOOO GOOOOD!!
I was the bike rack and bloody Mary guy in the street in Havelock with the mullet 🤘🤘🤘
You got food in West Union from the Cattlemen, right? I think I remember you two.
Unsure! We only stopped at a Mexican restaurant in West Union from what we can remember
Looks like you had a great, overall, experience. I am tempted to try the ride but there are soooooo many people, seems like it would be a little overwhelming?? Long lines for everything? Cheers and thanks for sharing ;
It got a little crowded at times but nothing overwhelming! However, this year might be crazy packed, I guess we have to wait and see :)
Great video! Maybe I'll see you there in 2023!
Yes! Join our team Stray Dawgs on FB! See you there :)
Miss you guys! Thank you for the content!
Miss you too! Thanks for watching :)

Iowa really did have such cool little towns along the route and amazing community!

It this tents a rockin' don't come a knockin'
Are you guys going this year I’m from Pensacola
Yes we will be going this year, see you there!
One question, I didn't see the tents on the bikes. how did you get the tents?
There were baggage trucks that you can drop off your belongings, then you pick them up when you come into each town!
@@SpenceandEm Thanks

@@jeffg.6110 thanks
I love the vandalism that you feel entitled to. Very American of you.
? Please help us understand this comment
Ok. Not getting why anyone would ever go to iowa😝
We thought so too! But then again the community we met and fun we had was above our expectations!
It's literally not a race lol
Not a race, just a fun 7 days!
