RAGBRAI© is a camping adventure.
The following list of items to pack is a compilation from my experiences on previous bike tours. I have ridden five different state tours, (Missouri, Indiana, Virginia, Wisconsin, Ohio) and have learned something new on each and every one. – Howard Foltz

Pro Packing Tip:
Use 2 gallon Ziploc bags (you can also label with days) to pack daily riding clothes
and evening clothes. At the end of the day you can put your dirty clothes
back in the same bag after you have showered and changed.
