The long one: 104 miles of Kansas gravel with under 1,000 m of climbing. It's flat and open, so it's a test of legs and patience, not hills.
Key facts
01No neutral start, so the gravel is a straight race from the gun
02Timing stops 1.4 miles before the route end (102.1 miles timed)
03Singlespeed needs one working gear; changing a flip-flop ratio must mean dismounting
