I loved this video! I am a native Iowan, and I love to see other people enjoy Iowa! It is a wonderful state, and yes, the people are really that friendly. And I love all the "Hey, look! There's some corn!" comments! We do have a lot of it. 🌽

The community aspect of this event has made my heart feel so full watching this. With all that we have been through recently, watching people get together and support the local community through pies and meals supporting the local fire department. Along with the cheer coming from everyone riding and on the side lines brings a smile to my face to see positive, active and happy people supporting a fun event in our country.

Also amazing videos again Kara and Nate! I love the long videos. I keep coming back to these ones because I plan on doing this with one of my friends.

Oh my goodness! My team of 2 and I, I was the support driver/nurse, were there! This was was our 1st RagBrai too! We will be back next year! I hope to run into you guys if you guys do it again! Best adventure we have ever done and watching your video of your experience just brought back amazing memories of this summer and kinda made me emotional…

RAGBRAI-I know exactly what that is because my Dad used to ride this every year with my Mom as his support (she did not ride). This was before it was as big as it is now-Dad was a military veteran (now deceased). I remember praying for them and hearing about this every year!

I feel like you guys are really taking your adventures to the next level, from leisure travel to more challenging activities that really make you guys grow as individuals and a couple. It do be inspiring 🥰

Kara and Nate...this is one of the best videos you have ever done, at least for me being a past bike rider myself. Thanks for the fun and entertainment!

This video makes me wanna do Ragbrai. Frankie saying she’s tiny in the bloopers cracks me up every time. It’s like she just realized it in that moment and had to let us know.

Kara is my spirit animal, I do not like noise or talking in the morning until I've had something to wake myself up. Frankie and Evie are such super stars for being so patient and resilient, I couldn't imagine doing any of that as an adult. This was a brilliant video Kara&Nate and you guys are such a great team

The fire hydrant scene has me splitting with laughter. Don't stop being you, Kara. Hahahaha

You and your relos and mates are all amazing; living life to the brim and never afraid to take on a challenge.

Thank you SO very much for this. My best friend and I flew from New Jersey to ride in RAGBRAI in 1999. Sadly, he has passed away, and for that reason and many more, RAGBRAI is one of my most wonderful life experiences. I'll always treasure it. I can't tell you how many happy memories this video awakened. My favorite town was Cherokee, but, as you and others so accurately noted, "IOWA NICE" was alive and well all over the state in '99, and appears to still be going strong. SO many nice Iowans give so much of themselves to make RAGBRAI one of the stellar cycling events in the world. We met the original Mr. Pork Chop, ate a lot of that corn, met riders from Australia, Spain, and all over the US, and we drank more beer than we ever had before or since. Like you, we rode west to east and dipped the back tires of our bikes in the Missouri River before leaving on the first day, and dipped the front tires in the Mississippi River when arriving at our destination town. Long live RAGBRAI and the kind and generous people of Iowa who help make it happen! And of course, I'm happy you two have now had this great experience!

Having been to the Midwest, I cracked up at, “We can see the water tower!” It’s like the opposite of car mirrors: “Objects in the Midwest are much farther than they appear.”

Ahhhh it’s my favorite time of the week again, and it’s a 30 minute video??!!!😭 I couldn’t be happier right now lol

Aww this makes me want to watch the whole Colorado trail series again! I love these longer trip formats

Kara & Nate, I think this is my fav videos of yours ever! You doing a great job of show casing the beauty of our what people would often call our fly over states! Love yall!

This is amazing. If this was a Netflix series, I can binge watch it. You guys are awesome. Also, I love the energy of the people in this video. They all are so supportive and so happy volunteering.

Kara is literally the most amazing female I know. I want to be her. I want to be with her. I want to be like her. You two are both so genuine and so upbeat and positive. I love your videos. Kara bathing in the fire hydrant is….so cool. Of course nobody would shame her, she thinks outside the box and is simply just herself. Love you guys!!!

Gosh, this was a fun watch. Those kids are the best. "You smell like sandwich."

I just showed this video to my 98 year old father. In 1953 he and my mother cycled, on a tandem, towing a trailer, across Canada (Quebec to Vancouver) on their honeymoon. It took them three months. He thoroughly enjoyed this video!

Kara is just hilarious! It's truly awesome that people can set aside what's going on in the world and just have a great time! I believe the big tractor is for spraying fertilizer.

“I don’t know, let me feel it” guy is a vibe

The noise Kara makes when she gets the coffee is such a mood - can. relate!

I just want to say that I seriously love your guyses videos. They get better and better every time and I love that they're also getting longer! I look forward to these every week and it also makes me want to live my life like you guys - full of adventure, fun, new experiences, all while getting in a ton of exercise and food hehe

Thank you big time!! I had a great time with you. Never long enough, but I always feel included. At 73, you make my dreams come true.

I have been waiting for you guys to post this. I have lived in Iowa most of my life. It is fun to see how others view this event. Ragbrai is just a part of summer here in Iowa. Small towns love when it comes through, it helps the local communities much. Glad you enjoyed your time. Can't wait for the rest of it.

You two are incredible! I love watching all your videos - your optimism and joy at the little things inspires me!

I grew up in Cedar Rapids, Iowa. I now live and work abroad and haven't been home for almost 2 years and won't be able to go home for another year. I have been so homesick and this has been the perfect thing. I'd never seen your channel, but I'm fully in now. Thank you for showing me all the great things I miss of my home state. I'll be returning to these videos multiple times. "Oh hey, it's corn!" "Wow" was an awesome running joke haha

I didn't realise how the 34 minutes went by. I felt soooo happpy watching this videooo...Can't wait for next oneee :))))

I laughed every time you said "Oh look, a corn field". Growing up in Illinois, we did that driving down to the south part of the state, or across Indiana, or Iowa. You have to be a little silly sometimes to keep your sanity.
