 We were able to find five of the Big 12 conference riding on RAGBRAI. They are Iowa State, Oklahoma State, University of Oklahoma, Texas and Nebraska. We looked hard buy couldn't find the rest, although we are sure they were represented on a ride with 15000 people. |

 Four pedaelrs went to Iowa this year to ride in the RAGBRAI ride. This ride goes across Iowa from the East to the West. Visit the gallery to see a selection of pictures from the ride. See if you can determine which two riders went fom the Missouri river to the Mississipi river. Can you determine whcih two couldn't find the Missouri and which one didn't get his tires dipped in the Mississipi? All riders had a great time and recommend this ride as a great place to spend a week cycling/eating/visiting//camping. We met several riders that had also done FreeWheel. There were a lot of activities for participants, including a Styxx concert at Iowa State. The towns that we rode trhough prepared different items to attract riders and all had lots of booths. |

 This is Kevin’s summary of the Flint Hills Death Ride held July 27, 2008 in Madison, KS. Photos from the Death Ride can be viewed at http://bartlesvillepedalers.com/gallery/FlintHillsDeathRide2008. For a thorough description of the Ride containing fewer “hydration” references, Sean has posted his Death Ride story at http://netpup.net/bikelog/2008-FlintHills/2008-FlintHills.html Keith, Sean, and I all finished the ride; it was 83 miles according to the map but I measured 86. Keith and I finished at 3:20 p.m. and Sean a few minutes later. Keith and I spent 6-1/2 hours on the bike, 50 minutes at rest stops, and about 30 minutes fixing two flats I had between miles 60 and 70. |

On May 31, I drove into Kansas to prove up a route to Lawrence that Terry and I plan to ride in late June to the start of Border Raiders www.borderraiders.com/. On the way back from Lawrence, I decided to drive by Cottonwood Falls to see how the “Dirty Kanza” bike race http://www.kansascyclist.com/events/DirtyKanza.html was going. Cottonwood Falls was not really on the way back to Bartlesville. It is in Kansas though, so hopefully you see my logic! |

Bartlesville Pedaler, Walt Bohn, declined to participate in our Spring Fling bicycle ride. His reason: he was doing his first ever sky dive to celebrate his 80th birthday. When the Pedalers found out it was going to be in Skiatook and the spring fling route went through Skiatook, the time was adjusted to arrive in time to witness the event. At about 11:30 in the morning, feerless Walt got on the plane and after climbing to 12000 feet performed an assisted jump. The event was witnessed by several Spring Fling Riders. Congratulations to Walt on his accomplishment. We are proud of you. |

After a cool night and a nice windy/cool ride the spring fling group gathers together at the WalMart Parking lot in Skiatook. During the day the group rode from the camp site at Birch Lake through Woolco, Ramona (down Bill's hill), Vera, Skiatook, Avant and back to Birch Lake. The distance was about 62 miles. Several of the riders stopped off to see pedaler, Walt, participate in an assisted sky dive to celebrate his 80th birhday. A good time was had by all. Moni was the only one to demonstrate flat tire repair. She accomplished the task in about 10 minutes, allowing Uncle Norm and Dale to have an extra rest about 3 miles from camp.
