Highlights from the 2026 Gravel Worlds Long Voyage — a 300-mile gravel race through Nebraska.
I started fast, averaging 19.5 mph through the first 60 miles and still holding around 17 mph at mile 150. Once night hit, things started going wrong. The screws on my GPS/light mount came loose, and I eventually had to improvise a repair by wrapping a tube around the mount. The mechanical issue cost me a lot of time, and I never quite felt like I had my normal power after racing Leadville the week before.
I finished 11th overall. Not the top-three result I was chasing, but another 300-mile race in the books.
