Hi My name is Eddie Mason. I am an avid cyclist. I am also a Photographer. I am looking to do this ride next summer I want to complete the ride within the guidelines of the race but with no pressure to compete. Slow and easy on a single speed 29er. I want to capture the essence of this ride. The beauty through my photography. I am preparing a kickstarter project to fund this venture so I hope you will be on the lookout. I am reaching out to you for any advice from anyone who has done this ride or competed in the underground race. I am a former resident of Summit County, CO and have ridden from CO to Virginia on a bicycle with a 75 lb Bob Trailer. I do know what I am getting into. It would be nice to hook up with a group and make them part of my photo project. Im currently living in Battle Creek, MI so it would be easy to hook up and ride with someone with the same goal. Let me know what you think. eddie.mason@gmail.com
