As the planning for the riders from RAGBRAI to pass through Muscatine begins, Mayor Brad Bark reminds people this is a community event and he hopes the community will be involved to make a great impression on the bicyclists.
On Saturday, Bark attended a planning meeting in Des Moines where he learned more about what is expected of pass-through communities. The second local meeting was held Tuesday evening. The co-chairs of the committee and subcommittees were announced and the finalized route the bicyclists will travel through Muscatine was unveiled.
