Just as I had entered Mitchellville, I heard a commotion behind me. Lance Armstrong and Matthew McConaghey were riding in with a large contingent of other riders. The streets were lined with well wishers from town and of course, from RAGBRAI. It happened so fast I was unprepared for a picture. Will have to do better later tonight. The excitement has been building for the day in anticipation of his arrival.
It has been a long day, fortunattely with less hills, but lots of heat. Clearly in the low-mid 90's. The Town of Bondurant turned out a young girls dance team to put on a show of modern dance. Lots of fun.
So far today I have had: half an ear of corn, a small bowl of pasta salad, one beef jerky, one breakfast burrio, two cups of coffee, one beer, one lemonade and lots of water. Still about 20 miles to go for the day. But with the land being more flat my speed is picking up. That is a good thing.
Supposed to be a foam party here. Lots of fun, will try to have a beer there before I hit the road again.

Very pretty design! Keep up the good work. Thanks.

Though Daly was not implicated, his life became chaotic. sports The sponsor exemptions have been going great. Of course, TaylorMade doesn't make a square driver; its competitors Callaway and Nike do. And I don't think Tiger is the kind of guy who's thinking about the streak anyways.
