Dirty Kanza 2009 |
|
|
|
 It was the evening of Jan 11th - when my cell phone rang. It was Kevin Doggett - he had been out on the internet and realized it was opening day to sign up for the Dirty Kanza and he was worried that it would fill up. I said, "Kevin - this is crazy - 205 miles - we have never done that many miles on paved roads. This is on dirt / gravel roads in the Flint Hills - What are you thinking?" There was a long pause and then he made this bold statement "We Can Do It". I shook my head and said "OK - sign me up, why not - I don't have anything else to do on May 30th". So that is how this adventure got started!!
