Kind of road related: I am gearing up to go back to Kansas, for the DK200, a hoping for a better performance than last year. These two vidoes get me jacked up for 200 miles of gravel.

Your nuts! You are gonna do 200 miles on dirt/gravel roads? For fun? Hope the wind dies down for your ride. The temps have been nice but the wind will honestly make you miss your couch!

Good luck and have fun!

Eventually it has to be at your back. I am better prepared than last year so I am ready for it (I think), Thanks!
