Yeah, he was OK by the time I made it back to the finish line…other than still bummed about having to drop out.

And I’ll most certainly be back next year. đŸ™‚

Kyle is ok now, I take it? I was kinda worried about him when I rode off to find cell coverage. Thought about him the rest of the day. If you made it 160 miles, that’s still a helluva accomplishment. I considered quitting several times, wavered, but barely continued on. Fine line. You’ll probably be back next year knowing a bunch of useful stuff that will make your next DK200 so much better. Good writeup, brutally honest!

Great writeup yourself, “sandals and aerobars” ROFL. You raced TI and DK200? Hardcore, sir. Gravel Worlds, next?

That was my friend Kyle you helped and my friend Jim you rode with…great guys. I only made it 160 miles, so I’m hoping next year holds a better outing for me.

It’s a 200 mile gravel road race with exploding popularity. What started as 36 people starting in a parking lot a few years ago grew to 420 men and women of all ages riding the 2012 race. That’s right, men and women racing alongside each other. Rebecca Rusch would go on to finish 3rd overall. The race was a legend from the first year. The initial race reports caught my eye, and the sheer scale of the course was alluring. I read every DK200 article I could find, including reports from… (many pictures) […]
