Strangewagon
looks like we are beyond capacity of the van 14 deer donged & still missing at least Davetime, Tudor, & Carly. We have a back-up plan though, spoke to P.Taco & he has a van and driver for a ONE WAY trip out west, should cover about 6 bodies & bikes.

Van Prep & Tubs
I hear there is talk of working on the van this wknd, sounded like P.Taco may be going? Anyone else? Places to crash?
We need new tubs, bigger like med pace. My vote is BYO Tub to ride. Type & model?

Ride
I am all for Okoboji to Dooby'Q, anyone?

Gear
Caps should be in C-town this week, shirts the next. $30 each.

Carly & I just booked flight to DM and will b there the Friday night b4.

Strangebrew rides T-11 days.

TMP has room for me. Makes one less. Van will be quite stinky with all you fuckers in it.

I'm up for starting in okoboji. If there are no objections, I'd like to swing through clear lake on our way out to the start and pick up my little brother. I feel it will only strengthen Strangebrew to be ridding two Hollands strong.

Stickers should be arriving any day now.

Tony, are we still meeting in the walmart parking lot?

Anyone getting excited yet????

We need a list of who is going and if they are in the Strangewagon or P.Taco's Taco Truck.

The Strangewagon is what it is and is will be ready for duty. I still haven't started the trailer, but rest assured it will be ready for duty as well. The trailer will be able mount 16 crotch carraiges with the possibility of a couple more unmounted.

The tubs we WILL BE using are at Home Depot for $10.97

Variance will ABSOLUTELY BE NOT ALLOWED !! If you need me to get one ahead of time for you let me know.

On where to start... My preference is to go to start town and ride, its a !! 69 !! mile day !! 69 !! From Okoboji its a short day so we will be able to party hard ALL night and still RAGE from Boji. With that being said I'm down with either.

On team swag, I need to make sure I have something coming for my daughter. Please tell me I do !! :)

On going through Clear Lake, I think it makes a shit difference as we can average 70 mph. I'm down with 2xHolland.

On where to meet, I'm game with the Walmart in Altoona. Might be less driving for some.

I updated our Info Page with info on the new totes and meeting place. What time are we meeting? I put noon on there, but I can change that.

Let me know if there's other information that needs to be added or changed.

Who is bringing a bike pump?
Posted By: Stank on Jul 14, 2014 | 7:32 am

On looking at the INFO PAGE I noticed the initial money of $150. Phil can chime in here as well, but my thinking is more along the lines of $250-similar to previous years.

It is important to get the tote with the diamond pattern on the top like in my picture of the one I got. If I need to get these here and make sure we all have the same one so be it. Let me know and it will be so.

Got my tote yesterday. Also, I changed the initial throwdown on the info page.
Posted By: Stank on Jul 14, 2014 | 12:54 pm

I will be taking Jake, Stephen mceleny, Taylor, megatron, and pat mac. I will also NOT be stopping in des monies due to driver availability. I will also be going to start town, I have no interest in hunkering down in boji, plus as Tony stated earlier it's literally 69 miles, if that isn't a strangebrew calling then I really don't know what is. I have the conch shell, so I will make sure that's not forgotten. As far as monies goes it would be good to get an idea what we are throwing in a little bit ahead of time, I think that would make it easier on everyone.

I am back in the US of f'n A. I have the sacred yellow pump. I am pro riding the 69. I have ridden 15 miles since last Ragbrai. Let's rage.

I thought we banned Kellen from the site and weren't allowing foreigners to ride with us ??

You son of a! Tonasty, I got a job in the DM area so I can join your year long Ragbrai.
