RAGBRAI Day Six - National Motorcycle Museum

We wondered, when we first heard about it, whether a "National" museum out in rural Iowa would be able to live up to the name.  I'm convinced that it does.

This place, at least for those of us that have interests in those other kind of bikes as well, is a treasure trove.  They have some old pedal bikes as well, but this is obviously a place intended for the motorcycle enthusiast, and boy does it deliver.  I have taken a bazillion pics, enough they'll have to be broken out into a separate album, and I think we've already been here an hour and a half.

They've got motorcycles from pretty much every era, and anything notable done on one, including big exhibits for both Evel Knievel and Easy Rider.  If we ever make the Sturgis pilgrimage, this will have to be a stop.
