Would anyone be interested in running the Kentucky Adventure Tour(KAT), around late summer? Dates will be July 29th-aug 1st

For those wondering the KAT is a roughly 1000 mile loop through out Eastern ky. This track includes; pavement, gravel, dirt, water crossings and the occasional off the main trail stuff.

I thought about it a few years back, but never got down there. Wish i could string enough days off together to do it.

4 hard days of pushing to get it done, average is 5 days. I’m friends with the guy who came up with it. And that was his recommendation.

Cool idea. What's the route? I doubt I can get that sort of time off, but I'm intrigued.

I already have two weeks off set in OCT. Summer is hard to get off. I'll see if you narrow down the time frame a little.

I’m interested but those dates don’t work for me as we've got a trip planned to the UP aug 2-6, if you guys change dates or something I may be able to make it. If not take lots of pics!
