Yeah, somebody woke me up and got me moving when their bike rolled out of Postville. I got up a bit later, couldn't sleep anymore because I went to bed too early (missed your DreamRider). I pulled out about 6:30.

Didn't have many troubles getting home (West). It was actually was a nice ride most of the way, with a few extra bits of excitement near Waterloo (TG for overpasses) and a short bout of ~40 mph cross winds for about 20 miles near Early, Iowa. I got home dry with my Frog Togs on. I had a nice tail wind to start and finish, with winds from the other three directions from time to time. Got home about 11:30.

Thanks for putting on a nice rally Don and Mrs. Q. Thank you volunteers. It was a great day for a ride.
