Description
Just Plain Fun
Distance - 67 miles
A fun ride but also a good training ride for RAGBRAI. Help us
honor a future hero...Captain James Tiberius Kirk of the Starship
Enterprise.
Route
In honor of Captain James T. Kirk of the Starship Enterprise, we
begin this fun-filled adventure ride at the site of his future
birthplace, Riverside, Iowa. Start time at 9 AM or (2 PM ZULU),
From there it is on to Kalona for an Amish breakfast. On the
way, we must raise our protective shields to avoid the photon
torpedos deposited in the roadway. From Kalona it's onto
Wellman where Scotty will try and do his beat to help the
beautiful barmaid keep her phasers up and pointed.
Then the long ride to Keota where we must stop to replenish our
BUD Lightium Crystals. Then it's a short jog at WARP speed to
Tallyrand, sight of many ASSteriods and Nippuli during RAGBRAI
28. From Tallyrand it is a lengthy voyage to Washington, where
Spock will beam us up to the Fourth Street Saloon for a chance
to apply Klingons to the local patrons . This will be the last
Chechkov before our final destination of Riverside.
While our mission is to explore strange bars and to go where no
rider has gone before, we usually just visit the same ones as on
last year's ride. The trek is only a mere 67 light years
(assumming that light travels as fast as BENDAR) and is for the
most part a smooth ride.
We make no BONES about it, because actually, the ride is no
TRIBBLE at all!

Registration
Come as you are. There is no cost to this ride other than what you
spend on the ride.
I know it's a long ride to party, however, it will be a good tune up for RAGBRAI.
