RAGBRAI, yes? Awesome!

https://ragbrai.com/

Since 1973, RAGBRAI, Register’s Annual Great Bicycle Ride Across Iowa, has been a celebrated tradition, bringing thousands of cyclists and spectators together for an unforgettable journey across the state. As the oldest, largest, and longest multi-day bicycle tour in the world, RAGBRAI is more than a ride. It’s a festival on wheels, a showcase of Iowa’s hospitality, and a driver of local economic and tourism growth. Each year, riders from all 50 states and upwards of 20 countries come to experience the charm of Iowa’s small towns, creating lifelong memories and meaningful connections.

But yah, the politician is clearly not lying, and knows what's up.

I absolutely loved when it came through my neighborhood in Madison County, they got treated to a full on country church picnic with homemade food and deserts 💜
