Gettin' Fat n' Dirty
Danielle Musto Rides Fat at the Grandfather of American Gravel Races
On June 4th I competed in the Dirty Kanza 200, a gravel road race that traverses the flint hills of eastcentral Kansas. The race is self-supported and notorious for its extreme conditions. If you talk to anyone who has ever competed in the race they will mention how the rocks are so sharp they can cause multiple flats, how the wind can be so strong and relentless that you feel like you aren’t moving, and that temperatures can be extremely hot with zero coverage from trees.
