I will be in town, just across from the airport by Friday.  I might be able to shuttle you about.  What time are you all getting in?

23 days until RAGBRAI starts! I can't wait, so much fun!!!! Is anyone shuttling from the Omaha airport to the start town? I'm not sure how I'm getting there from the airport yet.

I am shipping my bike to the start and was planning on just taking a cab from the airport to council bluff. Is this not a good idea? It looked like it was only 15 minutes by car according to mapquest.

The airport is on the same side of town as CB so it should be a short ride.

Also, have any of you thought about when you'd like to ride?  I am thinking mornings b/c A) I won't have to hurry or feel rushed and B) it's cooler.  As in temperature.  And social status.  =)

Definitely in the morning.....the sooner we get there the sooner we hit the beer garden!!! LOL!!

Argh, another bit of fun I'll be missing this summer.  I may have to stay away from BT for a while.

RAGBRAI XXXVII
in 5 days, 15 hours, 10 minutes, 8 seconds

I have been excited about the ride but anxious and nervous as well.  I am under no delusions that I am fully prepared for 440+ miles of riding and just hoping to get to the end  

It's going to be a huge blast no matter what!!!  HTFU may be my mantra on this trip!!!

Right now I'm more nervous about my bike getting there. 

She (Rioja) left me on her journey on Saturday.  Those Aircaddy boxes are cool but I'm still nervous.  I can't wait to see her again on Saturday.  I miss her already.  But she did look so nice.  All clean and lubed up, ready to hit the road.  She told me she would be ok and that she would be on her best behavior around all the other bikes.  She also said that she was just as excited as I was for the ride. 

See you soon baby. 

Oh, and I'm looking forward to meeting you guys too.

This was cute.  And a little psycho.  =)  

I cleaned my bike for the first time ever yesterday.  I feel like I've been an abusive bike owner!  It looked SO LOFLY all cleaned up!  I still have a little pedal squeak but I"m taking my bike into the LBS hopefully tonight for a tune up and to see if they think I need new tires.  

Heh heh. I'll give you that.    By the time I get her on Saturday, I will not have ridden her for almost 2 weeks.  (1 week at the LBS and 1 week in shipment).  But boy did she look so nice all cleaned up and shiney and ready to go.

My adorable ride will be at the LBS today for her final tuneup.  I am thinking she needs new tires but I will see what they say.

The person who was supposed to pick me up from the airport just bailed on me   I'm trying to see if I can use one of the local shuttles if possible. Anyone else getting in on Saturday afternoon?
