Towns along the RAGBRAI route have been very inviting to cyclists. In Keota, Iowa, the population dramatically increased when riders came to town.

Many local residents are welcoming the #RollinRx team with fanfare, including banners, and serving food, and water.

The history in these little towns is amazing. This nearly original, and still functional NuCara pharmacy was opened by the Alexander family in 1910.

The team of mobile pharmacists visited Pharmacy on 8th in Wellman, Iowa, another great, little pharmacy in a great, little town.
