Bring the Pink - The Matt Wills Interview


With less than a week to go, what's running through your melon regarding TransIowa?
The weather and all the shit i have to get together for the event. Making sure i've thought of everything i'll need. Should i pack a camera?
What would you say is your biggest concern regarding the race?
I'm mostly worried about the overnight portion. I've done plenty of nightriding but anything longer than 12hrs in the saddle will be uncharted territory as far as exhaustion and mental soundness.
Hulk or Thing?
Thing. he seems pretty chill all in all.
What's the bike and how's it setup?
Custom rigid Soulcraft SS 29er diskbrakes. 180mm cranks. 36x17 with1.8bontis. salsa flat bar, WTB pure-v saddle. Endurenz light.
Post race beverage of choice?
Coca-Cola.
Acid is not a banned substance for this race. Should you consider listening to Butch's advice?
Never done acid. Probably can live without doing it either.
Any last words?
Hope we can keep the homies togther for most of the event. Some companions for the voyage will certainly make the suffering more bareable. And maybe remembering everything a bit easier.
