My Ozarks BDR-X Ride Almost Ended Early...

ay 2 of the Ozarks BDR-X didn’t exactly go as planned. A rough start dealing with an issue on the bike had me questioning whether this ride was over before it really even began. After getting things sorted out enough to continue, I pushed on—making a stop at the Oark Cafe, taking on the Wild Hog and Slickrock Gulch hard alternates, and working around a route closure you’ll want to know about if you’re planning this ride.
