Monroe and their theme of the “Last Brake Before the Lake” are ready to host RAGBRAI as a pass thru town as thousands of cyclists will make their way from Des Moines to Knoxville. The West side of the square on Commerce Street will be blocked off for the beverage garden, and will also feature music from The Soul Searchers, Pie in the Sky, and an acoustic set from Andy Fleming of Brother Trucker. Along the South side of the square the Monroe Fire Department will be hosting water fights, and riders will also have an opportunity to see if they have what it takes to survive 8 seconds on a mechanical bull.
