Now, into this #cycling adventure... I think a bit of understanding of #RAGBRAI is in order.

I've often referred to RAGBRAI as a 450-mile pub crawl, across the state of Iowa. It's a rolling party. People will ride all sorts of vehicles across the state, and will do so in all sorts of costume. So seeing someone in unusual attire while riding is not completely unheard of.

All of that said, I did not expect to see what I saw that morning. It was one of those moments where I truly wondered if I was hallucinating.

For, on the road to my left and starting his own journey that morning, was a Gentleman. I managed to get his photo in the next town, along with a Wondrous young man.

It was the sort of moment where I truly wondered if what I was seeing was real. I start listening to music about Verona... and the Gentleman cometh.
