Pony Express 120 Gravel Dash
2026 Lucky 13 Edition
About the Event
Our goal for the Pony Express 120 Gravel Dash is to provide the Gravel Grinder community with a challenging ride and an opportunity to explore some of the history of the great mid-west. Modeled after other great gravel rides/races in this area, this event is for the self-sufficient minded cyclist who enjoys being pushed to their limits. At times this is a remote area but with enough towns along the way to resupply with support crew locations. Experience the rich history of North Eastern Kansas by riding 120, 65 or 35 miles of gravel through the same territory and small towns as the Pony Express riders did over 160 years ago.
Marysville, Kansas was the first Pony Express Home Station for weary west bound riders after traveling over rolling hills and beautiful valleys. The original barn & home station is now a museum in the downtown Marysville. Feel like a modern day Pony Express rider as you saddle up and ride your trusted steed through the countryside and small towns of this beautiful part of Kansas. “REMEMBER – KANSAS IS NOT FLAT”.
