Yep my thoughts with both artists.
Years ago Hairball played in one of the overnights and that was a blast.
Styx played in Ames in 08.

I don’t follow country so I don’t doubt it, just think they both fit Iowa perfectly. Many will love it but I’m not interested at all.
Lol, Kid Rock fans aren't bicycle riders, they are the ones trying to run bikers off the road or blowing exhaust all over them.
Horrible fit for RAGBRAI.
Well they want to set a single route number of riders record on the Ames to Des Moines leg so that day I would think they want people to cross both the official start and stop points for the day. If they get the 100,000 number I saw tossed about that'll be a crazy day. But yes the actual day pass number is capped.
Kid Rock rumor started by a dude trolling on social media. Same guy was the one saying Kenny Chesney too.
No credibility to it at all.
Cheap Trick was in Coralville last time around IIRC. That would be the kind of act that I’d be looking for in Des Moines and Iowa City. Something that gets played on 100.3 The Bus.
Wife and I are first timers and registered for the Ames to Des Moines. Sure hope the weather is decent the whole week for those doing the entire ride.
Curious and just too lazy to look it up. What is the.benefit of registering? Especially if you’re just doing a couple days.
Ames had the Spazmatics about 3 years ago. Seen them like three times and they put on a great show.
Sag wagon is legal then I don't think they would leave anyone that needed help with out help though. (my guess no 1st hand knowledge) though all I've ever done is pirate ride ragbrai
It takes money to put on RAGBRAI. Permit fees, road closures, highway patrol, insurance, EMT, sag wagon, etc.
Without people paying registration fees it wouldn’t happen. So if working with the state, counties, towns to close down roads, divert traffic etc isn’t considered a resource that you benefit from I don’t know what is.
Usually the entertainment is behind a fence and only for official Ragbrai riders.
If your bike breaks down they will haul you and it to the next pass through town.
08 Ames it was free to see Styx with a RAGBRAI wristband, if you didn't have one it was maybe 10 bucks. Styx donated all the money to Ames.
You also get to camp in designated/preferred areas in the overnight town. There's probably more than that but you get the idea.
