When biking Bill likes his roads the same way he likes his women; flat and easy.  Bill refuses to pitch a tent during RAGBRAI, and prefers to sleep under the stars or in the cargo hold of the bus.  Bill is also known as "The Man in Black" as he prefers to wear black shirts when riding at night.  Bill's theory is: "Those drunk drivers can't hit what they can't see".Ayrshire_Bill.jpg (556243 bytes)

During RAGBRAI 2002, Bill was given the added responsibility of driving the bus for one day.  His driving was fine, but his choices of parking spots were less than desirable.  His decision to park the bus next to a hog confinement building was the last straw.  All the flies in the hog confinement building decided to move into the bus for the rest of the day.  Apparently the flies didn't notice any difference in the smell.
