LESS THAN A WEEK UNTIL THE BAGBRAD STORE CLOSES. GET YOUR 2026 MERCH ORDERED TODAY AND DON'T MISS OUT! REMEMBER THAT YOUR PURCHASE HELPS OUR "RIDE TO PROVIDE" THOSE IN NEED OF MEALS FROM THE MCANTHONY WINDOW.
Looking forward to seeing everyone in ~3 weeks!
Less than 2 weeks to claim your BAGBRAD XII "Ride to Provide" gear.
AND, less than a month until the wheels roll and the brews flow!
The official BAGBRAD merch store is open (link below) through Thursday, April 30, 2026 and offers shirt options for gals and guys. There are also varieties of commemorative BAGBRAD hats available.
Each shirt and hat purchased through the store results in a donation to the St. Anthony McWindow, courtesy of Hollywood Graphics - Iowa City, by its owners and ride participants, Janet and Jerry Duncan. Please thank them for their generosity to our cause!
Get your orders placed today, stay the course on your event training, and get ready to have some fun with your fellow pedalers and pub crawlers along the Mississippi River on May 16th!
Excited to see you all soon!

It doesn't get much better than that! BAGBRAD XI "Prime-Time" will be one to talk about for a while! Monsoon winds and cold, but it ain't how ya start, it's how you finish! -- Sunshine, great people, fun stops with good food and beverages, and raised some funds for a great cause! A huge THANK YOU to all the bicyclers, car/truck riders, and those along the path who participated and helped make this a memorable day!
Start spreading the word with others that would enjoy joining us next year...the more, the merrier! And please share your ideas about how to make the event better in the future.
Watch for the update on the charitable donation WE collectively will make to the McAnthony Window.
Cheers!
BOOM!!!! Another beautiful day along the river!
