News Buzz: NPR's Don Gonyea Ready for RAGBRAI

Don Gonyea, Scott Horsley and Brian Naylor, team “No Pie Refused” are ready for RAGBRAI.

Well, at least Gonyea says he thinks he’s ready. “It was odd last year. You get stronger through the week. That makes no sense to me. Day 7 still scares me.”

Last year was Gonyea’s first year on RAGBRAI; he’s back again because he enjoyed it so much the first time around. During this River to River interview, Ben Kieffer talks with Gonyea, as well as Des Moines Register Reporter Kyle Munson.

Meteorologist Brad Small with the National Weather Service in Des Moines also joined the show to give a weather forecast for RAGBRAI week. Going on the ride? Listen up:
