Everything got canceled this year, including the Dirty Kanza and other gravel-grinders. In response, Peter Stetina and Canyon are sponsoring the "FKT", for the Fastest, Funnest, Freakiest Known Time that you can put together on your own. This is my entry - a thoroughly mixed-surface ride on my trusty mixed-use Tricross Cross/Gravel/Commuting bike. Twenty miles of pavement, gravel and trails out towards the dam. Trails included the "Western Heritage" trail along the Big BLue river below the dam and the newly re-opened mixed-use trail near Anthony school (and the new community center there). Nasty big, chunky, loose gravel was to be found on College Ave/Purcell Road near the livestock unit (and the manure piles). Pleasantly packed gravel makes up Cedar Creek Road, southeast of the dam. Pavement connects that all together. The Tricross has no power meter and the cadence sensor battery is dead, so this was all about the fun - trees and flowers and chirping birds. It was a lovely day for it - sunny with temperatures around just 80°F and light ENE winds.Wore the Air Force jersey, PI shorts, the MTB shoes and the black Bell helmet (all befitting the bike and the task). #fktworldwide #letsprivateer
