This was my 20th year of riding #RAGBRAI It was on paper one of the easiest, but due to the weather conditions (humidity, headwinds and high overnight temperatures) was one of the most difficult I’ve ever ridden. This story does a great job describing the weather conditions for this year’s ride. Photo courtesy of Dan Verrips

The clouds briefly cleared this morning to provide a robin’s egg blue sky backdrop to the latest round of #HoarFrost #RimeIce in the #trees . #Driftless #Winter
The roads were mostly clear of ice and the temperatures got into the mid-30°’s so I went for a 25-mile ride today. It was a nice ride, but a strong SSE wind did make it a bit chilly. #driftless #winter #bike #ice
For those who can get to #Wisconsin, a list of first quarter beers for #NewGlarus a benefit of living in the #Driftless
The sun came out yesterday, which I was happy to see but the #HoarFrost #RimeIce quickly melted of the #trees #Driftless #Winter #sunrise
