Talk about a daunting effort – 250 miles with 25,000 feet of climbing! Suddenly, all the FKT efforts on Utah’s White Rim Trail pale in comparison! Here’s a video from Kona Bikes that tells the story.
KERRY WERNER VS ROCKSTAR GRAVEL
The Rockstar Gravel Trail is a monster. Stretching 250 miles and climbing 25,000 vertical feet, it’s a grind to do as a multi-day ride. After bike-packing the trail last year, Kerry Werner decided to go for the Fastest Known Time (FKT) which sat at a bit under 19 hours. With very little experience to draw from for big days, Kerry set out to break the record. Fully self-supported, full of self-doubt, dark moments, and deep in the Virginia heat, Kerry and his Kona Libre CR DL put down an incredible effort that won’t soon be forgotten.
