SPECIAL LISBON EVENT!!
The Chicago Urban Bicycling Society (CUBS) has selected Lisbon as Friday's location for KYBO Roulette, one of the most unique charitable fundraising activities found on RAGBRAI. All proceeds go to Camp Courageous from an event broadcast by Iowa TV stations, reported in newspapers, and popularized further by Brian Duffy in his prize-winning cartoons in the Des Moines Register.
Bikers and non-bikers are encouraged to gather and participate in the KYBO fun---a competition involving the portable toilets set up for riders in downtown Lisbon. Just listen for the shouts. You'll have to see it to believe it. The Kentucky Derby-style action is run by the CUBS and should start at approximately 10 o'clock, going for about a half-hour. Don't miss it. It's a RAGBRAI tradition!
