Heading to Nodaway

A mounted photo of the bikers headed to Nodaway on July 20, 2009. Photographer Julie Wainwright captured the beauty of the ride and the huge number of bikers in a stunning photograph. It measures 20x24 and is mounted on a Sintra board. It shows a steady stream of bikers from the Villisca square as far as the eye can see on the hills toward Nodaway. A great gift for a biker or for someone who just wants a beautiful scenic with a special twist.

Villisca is a small, rural community nestled in the hills of southwest Iowa. We are a community of people with diverse interests and backgrounds; a community of individualists; and certainly a community with a unique history. Those are some of the endearing qualities that makes living in Villisca forever an adventure.
