First off, just wanted to give a big shout to all the folks who came up to me at Nepomuk Narly this past weekend to mention your loyalty to the show, interactions like that are truly what drives us (well at least me anyway) to keep this thing running week after week. Speaking of Nepomuk Narly, if you weren’t at the biggest little gravel race in Pisek, ND this past weekend then you definitely missed out on a good time.

From games and activities for all ages, race distances for anyone and everyone, the kindest host families you can ever imagine, and for the tip of the spear, one heck of a prize purse to boot. So put it on your calendars for next year, July 19th coming in hot. And no, this is not a paid advertisement, I just love this race to death and want y’all to experience the Nepomuk charm as well.
