Again this year,
you, your family (and the new baby) and friends that make up Brancel
Charters did an outstanding job. From the new Nicole video on the
bus to the increased services like coffee etc. All of you make everyone
feel welcome and like family..... Just when I think this is the best
CHARTER ever, you just keep outdoing the year before and I have had
experience with 3 other charters over the years. Thanks again for
a job well done. (rider of 10 RAGBRAI's)
This was my
first RAGBRAI and my first tour ride and I couldn't have asked for a
more awesome experience. Your charter service and crew took that
experience and sent it over the top and I wouldn't change a thing.
Thank-you for the opportunity to be a part of your service and I'm
looking forward to next year!
Your bike
transport was the best I have ever seen (I have ridden long tours in 4
other states). I also thought you did an excellent job of obtaining
shady, roomy campsites with convenient access to showers and the
waterparks were a totally unexpected treat!! The canopies were a real
pleasure and definitely lent to the camaraderie so often missing when
bikers set up their tents at the end of a long hot day.
I
definitely plan on riding with you again. You are the absolute
best charter! Thanks again for EVERYTHING!
As a
first time RAGBRAI rider, I couldn't have been more pleased with your
service. The price was right, the service was excellent, the campsites
were good, and you and your family were very accommodating hosts.
I especially enjoyed having the pavilions set up when we returned each
day with cold "refreshments" on ice. Thank you for a
great week.
I was
extremely happy with Brancel Charters and the service (always with good
humor and a smile) was outstanding. Thanks for all you did to make a
wonderful lifelong memory for me.
Thanks
for everything. I have been with you 5 years now and this year was the
best. You have really fine tuned the whole experience. I really enjoyed
the whole week. Every campsite you chose couldn't have been better. We
were close to everything... including the porta-potties! The peanuts
under the tents were just the right touch. Thanks again.
Everything was perfect.
Bike
route - the care you guys take to map the bike route into camp for us
each night (so I don't wonder aimlessly around in the heat after a long
day of riding) is greatly appreciated!
Maps
& Community Activities - not only have you checked out the communities
before RAGBRAI to determine the best spot for camping and convenient
location to the showers, BUT that you also have a map posted, in camp
for our convenience, that indicates where everything is and what is
going on in our host community! How awesome is that!!
Tent/canopies,
chairs, town papers and stocked coolers are ready and waiting for my
arrival each day in every host town. All this just so I can sit my
tired behind down, reminisce with my friends about the day, and read
the town paper to decide what I am going to do for the evening! Wha
whooie, how cool is that!
