Have you ever...? (Random sights and odd conundrums from RAGBRAI 2013)

 ... seen a man in a hot pink Lycra suit with Hello Kitty on his outfit, cape included?

And the big shocker? He's from San Francisco.

 ...seen a bike painted red used as a plant holder? THROUGHOUT TOWN?

 ... seen this many people PAYING for the honor to ride across a state and sleep in a tent every night?

 ...ridden with a couple on a cow spotted tandem bike?

 ...looked up and down a city street and viewed nothing but bikes? 

Really, thousands and thousands of bikes everywhere you look and think it odd you see a car on the a fore mentioned street?

...eaten a chipotle stuffed dill pickle battered with corn dog coating that was deep fried?

It was odd-ful (odd and awful)

 ...not been worried about your bike being stolen but rather finding your bike in the pile of other bikes?

 ...watched a man pull a dog in a cart only to be jealous of the dogs ride?

 ...taken a shower in a cattle stall with black plastic zip-tied to the railing and that plastic being the only barrier between you and the opposite gender? AND paying $5 for the "privilege"?

...had your breakfast mixed in a 5 pound bucket stirred with a paint mixer attached to a drill?
