100 miles of pure Flint Hills peanut butter mud and absolute grit at Unbound Gravel!
The legs are completely cooked, and the bike is covered in a thick layer of Midwest gold that I’m pretty sure could double as concrete. But we crossed that finish line!
To top off an unforgettable day, I even ran into the ultimate gravel mascot out there on the course. He officially gave the ride his seal of approval, and honestly, he wanted me to remind everyone: if you’re going to spend hours grinding through this stuff, please go get a proper bike fit. Your knees and back will thank you! 👣
Huge shoutout to everyone cheering on the course and the incredible crew keeping the energy alive in Emporia.
