RAGBRAI Comes Through Titonka

On Tuesday, July 23rd, 2002, RAGBRAI came through Titonka on its route between the overnight stays in Emmetsburg and Forest City. The Titonka Community Club organized a lunch for the RABRAI riders with proceeds going toward four local projects. Many Bank employees volunteered for the effort.


This corner of Main Street was busy with people filling up their water bottles from the station set up at the center-right of this picture.


The drive up canopy and alley behind the bank were popular places for participants to rest and meet with their support vehicles.


The sidewalk in front of the Bank provided some welcome shade for participants to sit down and rest for a time.


Titonka's Main Street was closed so bikers could use the area for relaxing and socializing.


The bike stands in front of the EMS building were made by stringing rope between a pair of tractors. They were full of bicycles most of the day.


Antique farm machinery was on display for the RAGBRAI bikers.


Thousands of bikers visited Titonka for RAGBRAI on July 23rd.


The buffalo in the background was a popular spot for particpants to take their picture. The EMS building on the right side of the picture housed the Community Club meal lines.


Titonka (big black buffalo in the Sioux language) had a buffalo available for the RAGBRAI riders to use for a photo opportunity.
