As per tradition in the Quad Cities, we tip our hats to the Rock Island Independents and Douglas Park.
On September 26, 1920 one of the first NFL games was played at Douglas Park in Rock Island.
Douglas Park was home to the Rock Island Independents from 1907 to 1925.

Davenport is officially the End Town of RAGBRAI’s 50th anniversary route! (Just like it was in 1973 😄)
This means people from all over the nation and other countries will ride into Davenport on July 29th!
We’re so excited to be back on the route for the sixth time!
