The Dirty Lemming is a one of a kind event and the race that really got me into this genre of racing. Probably because it feels more like a ride with friends than it does a race.

We're thinking of replacing Gravel Worlds with the Inspiration 100.

The best riders cover the distance in about 10 hours & 40 minutes; we managed to finish in 15 1/2. I'm not sure how many started in 2014, but 469 finished. 

Dirty Kanza 200 is behind us. It is a bit of a relief to be done. I was pretty intimidated going in, and for good reason. Our remaining 100 milers seem pretty tame. 

The track was fast and the weather was perfect. No doubt the talk after the race was about the three horses who decided to run along with us.

The wind was a challenge all day. I was fortunate to find a group of about 12 -15 riders for the 1st half of the race which was huge - I didn't want to be out there fighting the wind alone. The second half was predominantly downwind, which was lucky for me, because I rode most of it alone.
