DES MOINES, Iowa With RAGBRAI just a week away, first-time rider Matt Heiller and his teammate Matthias Peters, a returning rider, are winding down their training before hitting the pavement.
His team has
quite a few newbies, and Heiller admitted they didn t get to train as much as they should have. Our team has probably not put in enough miles, but I think there s a couple of us, get the adrenaline going, I think we might make it, he said.
Heiller, who is from Boone, is spending the final weekend pre-RAGBRAI biking with a friend.
