It's a scenic ride, but you have to wipe the mud and sweat from your eyes to take it all in—a body-numbing sixty-eight-mile mountain bike race in the occasionally treacherous hills of eastern Kentucky. Through mud, gravel, and Hell For Certain, cyclists zoom through the woods of Appalachia to experience Kentucky's most challenging race in the state. Going on its fourth year, one hundred and fifteen riders put their endurance to the test to claim the title of War Daddy.
