Every year for the last 40, thousands (20,000 est this year) gather in
western Iowa to ride their bikes from the Missouri river to the
Mississippi river in one week 60-70miles a day. . They ride everything
from unicyc
market or used to be so that was my 1st thought.

hi,
they are also called BRMs (brevet randonneur mondiaux) and since these
are long distance endurance events to be completed within stipulated
times, and the clock is always ticking, taking tents and sleeping bags
is unthinkable because of the weight. and yes, bus shelters are where we

Beautiful light and colors as well as excellent panning work in the
action shots. The morning light on the tents - especially the first
image of them - is wonderful.

I especially like the photo of the tent-camp with the (morning?)
sun shining on it (52329).
While I see one photo with different tents, I am surprised to see such a
uniform camp in that photo. Is it some type of a tent-hotel, provided
by some organization/company?
