Team Duzer Takes Over Gravel Day! RAGBRAI 50-Ep 2

[@bentrider1972]

Would I like to join Team Duzer??? HELL YES...Will I?? Sadly no..Still working on medical problems that made me have to cancel this year 2 days before I was to get on the bus with PBV..Sadly have not been on my trike in months..So though I was going to try for next year looks like I will be putting it off for one more year 😭😭😭😭😭😭

[@babybirdhome]

I hope for you it's only one more year and you get to do it the next year!

[@duzer]

We'll be ready for you to join whenever it works for you!

[@kellymorris10342]

Gravel Day was the best, even after breaking a spoke right after turning onto the second segment. Casey's is a must too! So glad I got to meet you at Casey's in Buffalo on the last day. RAGBRAI L was quite the adventure for me. I was out on the gravel as the sun was coming up, and it was unbelievably gorgeous!

[@duzer]

It was an amazing week!

[@johnmoe3781]

Gravel Day kicked my butt! That was a challenge! It was fun, but wow!

[@duzer]

It was indeed a hard day, but so fun!

[@kenprice1047]

Great stuff here Ryan and the Scooby Duzer gang! Awesome video Ryan! Ruh-roh-RAGGY. 😊

[@duzer]

Scooby DOOzer ;)

[@compassionsix]

Signed up 👍🏼 Team Fun, Team adventure, TEAM DUZER!

[@duzer]

Right on!!! See you in July

"Even turtles finish!" Best quote ever. My cycling totem is the sloth. Slow, I get there when I get there.🚴‍♀️🦥 See you next year. OLE'

[@duzer]

As long as you’re having fun, you’re going the right speed

[@Kindahush]

We're Team Van Duzer 2024!! Just confirmed registration(s) for my husband and me. Can't wait!

[@duzer]

YAY!!! Can't wait for next year

[@gaylbeals6712]

Add me for 2024! Edit: I just paid. I officially am one of the geeks in 2024!!!

[@duzer]

Revenge of the Nerds!!! So glad that you'll be joining us!

[@rabh6746]

You just can't help but smile watching that😁Pure inspiration from start to finish👌

[@duzer]

Thank you so much 😀

[@ridewithdanusa]

Gravel Day was so much fun! The kids were amazing!

[@duzer]

The kids made it so fun!

[@printerror]

That might've been my most fun day on a bike ever. Pleasure riding with you, my friend! :D

[@goldenstardust]

Oh my, that deserted house instantly reminded me of the painting by Andrew Wyeth entitled "Christina's World"! Chuck a bunch of random strangers together on bikes and two days later you have a new extended family! Love it!

[@duzer]

It was such a fun place to explore!

[@seattlegrrlie]

You're such a warm and welcoming person. It's always inspiring

[@duzer]

Awwe thanks!

Hi wondering where you ha been. Haven't seen much from you. Did you get married good to see you back.

[@duzer]

I’ve been posting videos every week! Take a look at your settings and make sure that you’re getting notifications

[@maxenra]

We missed out this year but our good friends rode with you in our stead. Maybe ‘24!

[@duzer]

Thanks for sending your friends our way

[@fredricgriffin6070]

There were many Team Duzers from all over the world on the GDMBR this past summer. Thanks:)

[@duzer]

Oh cool! I wanna do that route again!

[@ryanbarnett1731]

Awesome as always Ryan! Waiting in Thailand for you!! ;)

[@duzer]

Maybe one day!

[@longrider42]

Yeah, Casey's was doing pizza back in 2012, when I did the ride. Casey's saved my life, that and Gatorade. Glad you had fun. I thought about doing it this year, but then I realized every one and their dog would be riding, and I'm not a fan of a crowd that big. I'm hoping next year. Take it easy and stay safe.

[@duzer]

Casey’s is pretty darn awesome

[@billysbikesbrews7183]

I Love Gravel Roads.. Fantastic Scenery.. People of IOWA are Phenomenal.. I did the Gravel Roads on RAGBRAI 2018.. One of the Funnest Days.. Gravel Roads to Moorhead IA Pop 199..

[@duzer]

Gravel day is one of my faves!

[@charlesphelps2730]

The one thing I learned from Iowa gravel this year, it is more technical because it is very loose ( I wish I brought the gravel bike.). I did survive! If you do get a charter. plan early. The charters fill up quickly.

[@duzer]

Very true!

[@IowaNinersFan]

Loved gravel route (so I can get away from the mob crowd lol.)

[@duzer]

I hear you on that!

[@bikerajg]

Team What’s Up Chicken Butt made it on KZbin!!! Thanks Ryan.

[@Happy_Biker]

🐢Team Turtle 🐢 Someone get Danny some electrolytes, STAT! 😮

[@ridewithdanusa]

Haha this was the calm before the storm for me! End ed the week with 2 ER visits! Ready for 2024 though 😂

[@duzer]

Dany takes a licking and keeps on ticking! :)

[@HuntersCyclingAdventures]

The best day of ragbrai 50 but next years team duzer gravel day will be even better

[@duzer]

You know it!!

[@IowaNinersFan]

Ryan - Anyone who thinks the Midwest is flat obviously have never been to Iowa. If anything is flat, it's Nebraska. One boring state to pass through.

[@duzer]

Iowa is way better than Nebraska ;)

[@ridewithdanusa]

Even turtles finish!

[@duzer]

And they finish with big smiles on their faces

[@FrankF-vp4pt]

Man, I just may go next year! Looks like a blast riding as a team!

[@duzer]

Come join us!

Great video! Duzer's Cruzer's!

[@yousafkhanbikes]

I liked the video before I watched it 🤫

[@duzer]

Thank you!!

Here is the Irony of the InnerFold; They become more of a Nayer or an accuser and in secret (as I know a lot them have a double life) are soon to be discovered as a deliberate sinner. They Nay my freedom and choices; wait til some will see and hear what the INNER FOLD is more so about in TRUTH.

[@deddytubagus9268]

Nice bike, Ragbrai is amazing even Im only watch from youtube, I can feel the atmosphere and pedaling. Anyway Ryan what is your video setting during the trip, is that 2K or 1080p is enough quiet good ?

[@duzer]

I shoot all my videos at 4k

[@deddytubagus9268]

[@harrygrimley4352]

Wow. That looks so fun. I wish. Maybe next year double your team? Thanks for sharing this with us.

[@duzer]

I hope so!

[@leninmercedes6567]

Love all your videos

[@duzer]

Thank you!!

[@melissasueferrin3409]

Oh my I was holding my breath when you guys went into that old farm house--you need to be really careful, someone could have fallen through the floor.

[@denverspin]

They built homes properly, back then 😂😂

[@melissasueferrin3409]

I'm from Iowa and know plenty of teens who had that happen to them, the weather weakens everything.

[@duzer]

you're right, luckily nobody got hurt

[@gsnyder2007]

Loved this episode. Team Duzer you rock. Maybe I'll meet you on next year's ride!

[@duzer]

Come join the fun!

[@gsnyder2007]

@@duzer Registered! Chalk up another RAGBRAI newbie to Ryan! 😀

[@hemaccabe4292]

Looks so awesome. I want to do Ragbrai so bad.

[@IowaNinersFan]

Don't think, just do.

[@duzer]

I really hope that you can make it happen someday

[@kellymorris10342]

Do it, even if you only do it once. It's an experience.

[@cecilelevert4003]

No Slippies, No Slidies, No Skiddies? Or is gravel a less treacherous surface than I think?

[@duzer]

Skiddies are always fun :)

[@pgpagaia]

Man, just when I think you can't top other legendary videos of yours.. this is epic. What an wholesome team you put together. Your good energy has no end.ngood job. Is it too crazy to fly from another continent to ride ragbrai?

[@duzer]

Thanks!! There’s lots of foreign riders on RAGBRAI

[@bradyb9929]

Ryan i ran into you by the backyard pool in Polk City and it was great to meet you. Welcome to Iowa!!

[@duzer]

That was so fun!!!

[@ingeleonora-denouden6222]

Sorry but I won't join ... the USA is too far away for me. But it looks like fun!

[@duzer]

We’ll dig an underground tunnel so you can join us ;)

I am so excited for my first RAGBRAI. And doing it with team Duzer and the Doozies. OLE!

We need a GRAVBRAI 2024!

[@duzer]

Love that!!

[@wanderingfeet3053]

Gravel day sucked… broke several spokes on that day

[@duzer]

bummer, hope you were able to get that fixed

[@dudleycalloway9508]

Would love to make that trip. Looks like fun.

[@duzer]

It’s so fun!

[@LVang152]

Iowa is relatively flat compared Colorado.

[@duzer]

indeed

[@odinata]

Watch out for that first step...its a DUZER!

[@duzer]

😂😂😂

[@russellely1021]

is that a hub dynamo in your front wheel?

[@duzer]

It is

[@thebiglimey]

So many Òle's for this one!

[@duzer]

We definitely filled our Olé quota

[@tomprentice6935]

⚔️💪😎👌👌(stroke)

[@VagabondTurtle]

I would love to, but not sure about 2024 yet. Is it possible to ride if you are from Sweden? 😅😊 but it’s more dependent on the other plans. Maybe 2025?

[@duzer]

Yes, SWEDES are allowed at RAGBRAI! Come join us sometime

[@tonyrice1557]

Hi Ryan, Tony Rice-Duzer kind of sings. I'm 74 and ride a Specialized Turbo Tero 3.0 hardtail 29er EMTB set up for bike camping and touring. Just completed the Rock Island and Katy trails last month. I would love to join you for next years RAGBRAI as a tune-up for my Pacific Coast ride in September. I'll be 75.

[@duzer]

Amazing!! We'd love to have you

[@jaybone58]

where's the cute girlfriend from last year????

[@wojOttawa]

Let's go Ryan. OLE!!

[@duzer]

Olé

[@denverspin]

Is the gravel an option?

[@duzer]

Yep, just on one day during each week of RAGBRAI

[@JeremyLawrence-imajez]

After that summary, you need a Duzer Dorks t-shirt too. 😜

[@duzer]

Haha!! Good idea

[@JeremyLawrence-imajez]

I'll send you my bank details for my cut of the millions you 'll make from this @@duzer 😁

[@edhickman495]

I rode my first RAGBRAI this year and rode with Sioux City Cyclist which was a smaller group and it made the experience awesome and fun. I got to meet Ryan at the expo and enjoyed your energy. Thanks for the memories

[@duzer]

Sounds like you had an awesome experience! Thanks for saying hi at the expo

[@christophersmith7703]

This was very inspiring! I'm all signed up! Go Team Duzer!!

Awesome!! Welcome to the team

[@nathantaylor6785]

when do you have to sign up to RAGBRAI by? I'm thinking of joining ya from Aotearoa :P

[@duzer]

I'm not sure actually, maybe until it fills up

[@garyharnish2395]

🤙🤙🤙🤙

[@mathewrose2951]

It looks like you're having a ton of fun. It's curious to me that the event only allows Americans to participate and only allows you to get information (or even see the website) if your computer is physically located in the US at the time you're trying to visit the site. I'm overseas at the moment and tried to look up the route for next summer and I got a message saying Europeans aren't welcome.

[@duzer]

It's weird, I'm not sure why they don't open the site for the rest of the world...I always meet people from around the world. maybe their U.S. based friends sign them up. RAGBRAI needs to work on this

[@stephenmarotti5309]

How hot was that day? An impressive showing by all.

[@duzer]

I don’t remember exactly, probably mid 80’s

[@SasSaga]

I want to do this! Looks like a hoot! What kind of bike do I need for this? And do we haul our own gear?

[@duzer]

Most people don't haul their own gear, RAGBRAI provides baggage shuttles. Most people ride road bikes

[@Cyclingsgood]

So much positive emotions!!!!

[@duzer]

YOU KNOW IT!
