Episode 86: Tandem Riding with Cheryl Oreglia

In this episode, Wynne Leon and Vicki Atkinson are with author, blogger and fantastic story-teller, Cheryl Oreglia. Cheryl takes us along on the Register’s Annual Great Bike Ride Across Iowa which is familiarly known as RAGBRAI. Seven hot days of riding, camping, and communing with 20,000 other riders. Sounds fun, right? But what Cheryl does so consistently is bring the magic. She rides in tandem – both on the bike with her husband, Larry, and also in her writing. She is so good at synchronizing her inner landscape with all that she sees around. She takes us on this journey from the Missouri River to the Mississippi River. And she leaves Vicki and me in tears about what it all means. Cheryl is a beautiful writer and inspirational story-teller. She reminds us all what is out there when we face our fears and try hard things. Pork chops, sunrise, kindness, and courage to name just a few. I’m confident you’ll love the scenic and beautiful places we explore as we share the power of storytelling. We know you’ll love it!
