AGRS Decides To Fold: Races Carry On

The Almanzo adds another event; The Dirty Nellie 400

In a recent announcement found on the Almanzo 100 site, we learned that the gravel road series of events known as the AGRS is no more. However; the announcement also makes it clear that the participating events in the series all seem to be carrying on for 2013.

In a bit of positive news regarding the Almanzo, it has also been learned that the proposed 400 mile event has a name, (Dirty Nellie 400), and while we do not have solid details on the event, we do know it is in addition to the Almanzo 100 and Royal 162 events. Word has it the the 400 mile course will be something riders might be able to tackle at anytime during the year with some sort of individual time trial goal, similar to Tour Divide.
