Clay Pennell delights in, at last, riding the famous RAGBRAI, Registers Annual Great Bicycle Ride Across Iowa, a goal achieved. Since childhood, cycling assumed an important place in Clays life, both as recreation and conditioning. In addition, it was on his bike that he sifted through any issues that he confronted.
At the conclusion of his ride across Iowa, Clay left more in the small Iowa town of Packwood than just memories. However, his life went on with only fleeting moments of reflection on that night in Packwoods Friendship Park.
Ten years later Clay faces a serious interruption in a life that has included a successful career in the cycling world and a successful marriage to a beautiful executive in a thriving electronics firm located in suburban Minneapolis. An accident on his bike has clouded his future as a cyclist, confronted him with the need to discover just who was responsible for his potentially fatal encounter with a white pickup, and added mistrust to his marriage.
Ultimately, Clay confronts a crisis that extends far beyond mere cycling. His decision could have a profound influence on a childs life.
