Depending on what county, sometimes they do close the roads for the bikes, but usually they do not.

Now, I've lived in Iowa City for most of my life and I could never see the appeal of riding a bike across there state in the middle of a hot summer. But I reallized how much I hated RAGBRAI when it stopped in my home town 13 years ago. These bike riders do bring in a lot of money, but it makes driving around town a pain. The City of Coralville blocked off streets two years ago (it may have been last year, I don't remember). They play loud music, they drink a lot and then the place a mess when they leave. I'm happy I don't live in Coralville any longer.
