3rd place 150 mile Open Men and Bobby Kennedy rolled in together to our mobile Aid Station. They were both pretty happy to have a resupply pop up with 20 miles to the next town!

Those 50-100 ft relentless Iowa rollers can feel like constant gut punches when the legs get tired!

2nd place 150 mile

would correct me on that since it was more like 158 miles....you get more than you paid for?! 🤷‍♂️

We're glad you came out to break in your new bike on a route that provided proper test in a range of conditions!

Our FUn ride was pretty awesome this year!

Some riders were racing the route at the front of the pack and others chose to hang out with our great Aid Station volunteer and then hit the local watering hole on route after that. It's all what you want to make of it!

And all of those riders took on a 37 mile course with 2,200 ft of elevation featuring 3 Minimum Maintenance Roads that were rutted up, had muddy spots and some serious rock!

Great job tackling a tough route everyone!

There are many stories to be told about the 2025 edition of the Spotted Horse Gravel Ultra, as with every year!

We are always excited to see the next generation doing hard things! Anyone who rode our 75 mile course yesterday, knows how hard it was. So, to see 11 year old Joe tough out his longest and most difficult ride to date made us all smile. That's 75 miles and nearly 6,000 feet of elevation gain!!! 🤯

Congratulations to Joe and his father, Kevin, to getting that thing done! We were all very impressed!

Side note, Kevin rode a singlespeed with coaster brakes that he found on the side of the road a while back. Needless to say, Joe has a great example of someone who isn't afraid of doing hard things!

It's always fun to find some sketchy bridges out on the B roads! Routes will be released next week after we get eyes on all of them once more.

This year's 150/200 mile routes are going to be pretty wild! There are multiple water crossings and close to 40 miles of Minimum Maintenance Roads on the 200.
