BRASL cyclists circle Spirit Lake

Cyclists headed out to circle Big Spirit Lake early Saturday morning, as the Spirit Lake Chamber of Commerce hosted its annual Bike Ride Around Spirit Lake — or BRASL. Organizers welcomed entrants as they stopped to register along Hill Avenue in downtown Spirit Lake. Participants could choose from a 15, 25 or 50-mile course — the longest of which took riders all the way to Jackson, Minnesota and back. (Photos by Seth Boyes)
