Glendo State Park is home to some new, great singletrack and is conveniently located off of I-25 only 200 miles north of Denver.

ABOUT THE EPISODE
Mark brings you another great interview with a prominent US endurance racer. Dylan Johnson is a six-year veteran of the National Ultra Endurance Series at the young age of 21. He was the 2016 NUE Series Men’s Champion after an interesting year that began with wins at Cohutta and the Mohican, continued with a mid season lull, and finished with a dramatic win to seal his series victory.
Mark and Dylan discuss a wide range of topics. Listen in as Dylan shares how he got started so young, some thoughts on training, racing, the upcoming season, and more. Dylan’s voice may sound young, but it’s clear that he’s beyond his years in his attitude, focus, determination, and skill.
If you are a race director or racer who would like to hear your race report on an episode of The Last Aid Station, please contact Mark atMark@Mountainbikeradio.com.
