I think that is a grand idea. We have plenty of ground space for campers  |

I expect the route to start in Souix City and end in Dubuque. However, that leaves a number of stops in the middle that I don't know. Potterville would be nice. However, I don't expect the route to come this far south.  |

I think Ragbrai will begin in Lincoln NE with a Prologue, and then the riders and travelling circus will be transported by cattle car to western Iowa, where the route will go right down the central portion of the state, only missing Potterville by a short distance.
I predict we will never be far away from a Casey's cappucino, and the ride will culminate at the Mississippi River, with wheel dipping, and lots of emotion.
In general, other than Lincoln, NE, I think it will basically follow HWY 30.
Just predictin'

Ending in DBQ would be cool. Running along hiway 30 would also bring us close to home. I think that Marion was hoping to host Ragbrai again sometime. Staying at Potterville also sounds fun! I'm ready now!!

Would be an interesting end town. Been a long time since RAGBRAI came to Dubuque. I remember volunteer work when the ride came to town.
