Episode notes
Patrick Coughlin and his wife Gabrielle started Team Cow on RAGBRAI more than 20 years ago, with a white bus adorned with black spots and a horn that moo's - and all the obvious puns that go along with it. After a wonder week of RAGBRAI in 2024, disaster struck the bus on it's drive back to central Iowa from the Mississippi River. Was that to be the final year of Team Cow or would the bus live on? We joined Patrick at his office in Des Moines to find out how Team Cow began, swap some RAGBRAI stories and finally learn what happened to the bus- as well as it's fate and the future of Team Cow. A Go Fund Me page has been set up for repairs to the bus. https://www.gofundme.com/f/help-save-our-beloved-cow-bus
