Highlights: Day 6, the briefest ride of the week, will take riders through Iowa's Driftless Area in northeast Iowa from Cedar Falls to Oelwein. It is known for its towering bluffs and steep cliffs near river valleys, and bike rides there provide some of the most spectacular views in Iowa.
Visiting Oelwein will be special for Ride Director Matt Phippen — it's his hometown.
