It's April first and we hope your training is going well. We've been busy here too, trying to make 2016 the best Rough Riders 200 ever. With that in mind, we dipped into our RIDER SUGGESTION BAG and this one seems to be representative of the most frequent request. You ask, we deliver. https://www.roughriders200.com/

“Michael, 100 miles per day is challenging. I just can't seem to consume enough calories or fluids. Bonking miles out is a scary possibility. While I appreciate the Aid Station fare, wouldn't it be best for the rider's safety if there was a MANDATORY CALORIC INTAKE as seen here in the USA Cyclocross National Championships Donut Race? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nfTR5KkUSRY =share” – Gary, Pawnee, IN

Well Gerry, that's a great idea. In order to receive an official finish time in 2016, riders will be required to eat 2 bean and cheese burritos with hot NM chile (green on Saturday and red on Sunday) and a 32 oz soda every 20 miles. VOMITING AND SHARING PROHIBITED. We appreciate your comments and have your best health in mind! This'll probably even get us a discount on insurance (though yours may go up). Happy April 1st.

Because it's always more fun to do it with a loved one or because you like to see your friends in pain - ride with a Team, Club or Group of nearest and dearest and save $$$. Discount rises with size of group - you can even earn a FREE ENTRY! (Because watching friends in pain that they actually paid for is even sweeter!)

Just ask Team Lipstick (aka Muffin Top).

If you have to ride 200 miles to get a pair of RoughRiders200 socks by Save Our Soles, I'd call those some pretty crazy socks.

Good thing we don't lack in crazy socks here at save our soles!
Research shows that people who wear crazy socks are rebellious, intriguing and successful.
