Last week it was announced that Iowa’s Ride, the new cross-state bike ride, will be stopping in Eldora as an overnight stop in July.
This week local organizers are already beginning to plan for this event. A few years back the community hosted an overnight stop for RAGBRAI.
The new Iowa’s Ride was launched by former members of the RAGBRAI staff.
“They’re going to be coming here. They’re going to spend their money,” said Angela De La Riva, economic development director for Hardin County. “They’re going to be staying. They’re going to utilize all of our resources.”
Local shops are also excited to have the new ride stopping in town.
