Working on the novel, I did some goggling around about bike riding in Iowa. Came across a description of the FunHaters’ Ride, out of Des Moines, which is short but sweet. It has the same paragraph under “Cost” and “Registration”:
None. Come on, can we all just leave the cameras at home. If you do bring the cameras, lay off the bribery pics. The fun of this ride, especially the second stop at the Saddle, is that anything goes. That does not happen often. This said, again clothing is optional and stupidity is encouraged if not demanded. And safely spread the love.
That sounds like the Iowa I know and love.
