Ragbrai is heading into it’s 50th year, and with the event growing every year, it’s important to remind riders what to expect along the way.
An informational session was held at Davenport Eastern Library Saturday afternoon to educate new participants about Ragbrai.
Starting back in 1973, Ragbrai has become a national event spanning the length of Iowa. This year there are representatives from all 50 states, and from 17 countries.
“Last year was a record-breaking year, and knowing it’s the 50th year we expect 50,000 riders, so we’re expecting the masses to come to Davenport,” said Visit Quad Cities Vice President of Business Growth Joan Kranovich.
