Feeling in a bit of a funny mood, so I think it's time to tell the most surreal #cycling moment I ever had in my life.

#RAGBRAI, Day 3, 2021. Starting early morning, maybe I got sleep, maybe I didn't. (Sleeping in a tent is like that.) I start out early, around 6 AM, still a little hazy out.

I like to listen to music while I bike; I had a small speaker for this. And, on this morning, I got it in my head to play a few French musicals. I started with Gerard Presgurvic's "Romeo & Juliette".

The music for the musical starts with "Verone", about the city in question.

So... I'm cycling out of the overnight city, still trying to wake up, sun not fully risen yet, listening to this song.
