Thousands of bicyclists are scheduled to go through Burlington next month during the Register’s Annual Great Bicycle Ride Across Iowa, though it’s unclear how flooding may impact the route.
Kay Breuer, with the Greater Burlington Partnership, says it’s too soon to say how damage caused by high water may impact events during the closing days of RAGBRAI. “A lot of the camping and other activities are out within the community and those weren’t affected,” Breuer says, “So, we’re really just looking at that main stage area and trying to assess what our contingency plans are.”
