Testimonials
I’ve traveled with OOS since my first RAGBRAI in 2009. They’re a huge part of why I return year after year. The Haeffners and their staff are welcoming, friendly and tireless. Whether the day is easy or hard, the green arrows and yellow flags always give me a boost. OOS makes the week a joy. I’d recommend them to anyone—personally, I won’t use anyone else.
Tim and Lynne of OOS are the perfect hosts. Our first RAGBRAI was beyond expectations—personal care and attention that made us feel like family. Quiet campsites and great organization. Great people and a great company.
If you’re picking a charter, choose OOS. I’ve ridden with them for 12 years—family-run, hands-on, and always there with answers. Need a tent set up? See Style and Kaleb. Finding camp? Follow Dani’s signs. The main reason I love RAGBRAI and keep coming back… is OOS and the Haeffners. You’ll feel like family by Friday’s first sunset.
Tim and his staff consistently go the extra mile. This year will be our 18th ride, and OOS has been our only charter since 2005. Friendly team, relaxed and quiet camps, smooth daily moves. We’re excited for more of the same this summer.
“We used OOS services in 2025 for RAGBRAI LII. My son who is 11 years old and my daughter 26 yrs old had not done much riding so we were worried about being able to handle the mileage. Luckily OOS has a service called “RAGBRAI Lite” in which they will pick your group up at the halfway point or drop you off at the halfway point, essentially making some of those 74 mile days doable for riders with less leg strength. We loved the service they provided and their friendly helpful staff. We couldn’t have done it without them. Thank you so, so much OOS!
