Having participated in RAGBRAI before, I look forward to the atmosphere the most. Riding with more than 10,000 other cyclists and knowing that everyone you see has a common interest. Everyone is a new friend in the waiting. It's awesome being apart of such a large event that has a connection between everyone. I participate and fundraise for this event because Neighborhood House fills a large need in our community, being able to support such a critical organization has been an honor and a blessing. I have met many wonderful volunteers and providers at Neighborhood House. They all have a deep sense of care and it shows!
