RAGBRAI is the largest, oldest and longest recreational bicycle ride in the country. I rode 469 miles across Iowa, ending at the Mississippi River. Almost 20,000 cycling participated. Pork Belly Ventures supported my ride. My team was Berkshires of Massachusetts. The ride was more than just good, it was a spiritual journey! One day I rode over 100 miles, having done the Kerras optional loop.
The towns went all out for the cyclists. Each town we went through was like visiting a state fair!
Another few days! And we understand how stressful it’s for you all! The mind is occupied with all the possibilities of uncertainty and fear. And why some of us are having some quality time with family, most of us are stuck in one place, in house, alone.

Denbigh Asylum, AKA North Wales Hospital was built in 1844 and completed in1848. Designed by the Architect Thomas Full James and is now a grade ll listed building. The hospital was only to treat people with psychiatric illness. In its early years it could accommodate up to two hundred patients, many extensions were added over the years to accommodate many more. It finally closed in sections from 1991 to 1995. The hospital now is derelict, many parts are very unsafe to enter. Fire took out one wing recently, the inner floors and roof completely destroyed. It was very eerie exploring the hospital today but a great opportunity....

SCI Waymart is located in a building complex that was formerly part of Farview State Hospital outside Waymart, Pennsylvania. Pressed into operation ahead of schedule following the 1989 Camp Hill riot, the joint on-site operation of a state prison and state mental health facility was unique. In October 1995, Farview State Hospital was transferred from the Department of Public Welfare to the Department of Corrections. Now known as the department's Forensic Treatment Unit, the unit houses mentally disabled male inmates who require inpatient psychiatric care and treatment. The institution also houses minimum-security inmates.
This would occur over time and there would be no sudden mass release of prisoners: MHRT
As many as 2000 NSW prisoners will receive improved psychiatric care under a revision to forensic mental health legislation.
The changes will also secure the earlier release, under community treatment orders, of some people whose illness had previously made them unsuitable for parole.
Greg James, QC, president of the Mental Health Review Tribunal and architect of the reforms - already enacted and likely to go into effect from February - said the tribunal would supervise psychiatric treatment for prisoners and ensure it continued after their release. According to some estimates, nearly half of prisoners have some form of mental illness.
Court diversion programs are preventing about 1600 mentally-ill people a year from receiving a jail sentence, but the changes mean that for the first time psychiatric treatment for those who are jailed will be co-ordinated with treatment after release. Both will be under the tribunal's supervision, with individual treatment orders made by a panel comprised of a judge, a forensic psychiatrist and another mental health practitioner.
Mr James said about one-fifth of some 2000 forensic patients had been judged unfit to stand trial on account of their mental illness, while the remainder were serving their sentences. Of these people, about 1000 might otherwise be eligible for parole, but "the parole board does not regard them as capable of adjusting to community life," he said.
The new treatment regime would accelerate such people's parole, Mr James said, but this would occur over time and there would be no sudden mass release of prisoners. "The expertise is all in place" in community health services, he said. "I
