I just talked to Skip. He had just finished at around 11pm. He got second in the Single Speed catagory. Jeff Bonsall battled bad back pain to get 3rd in the Single Speed catagory. Skip knew that Cameron Chambers won the whole thing and thought that Matt Gersib had gotten 5th overall and that Corey, despite having had 8 flats throughout the race, came in 7th.
That was all that Skip knew. I'm sure he will report in with more information in the morning.

Awesome! My congrats to Skip, Matt, Corey, Jeff, and all that finished or gave the DK a try this year.
The stories are aleays good from these events. Can't wait to read 'em!
good stuff!
Thanks Mark. There were some amazing stories to come from this year's edition of the Kanza, the most notable in my mind being Cornbread's ride to seventh place despite eight flat tires. What made it even more incredible was the character and good humor Corey showed through the adversity.
And prior to his flat tire calamities, he and Cameron Chambers were the two heavy hitters of the pack. They'd successfully shed all other contenders from their wheels. Then the flats started... But Cornbread kept it all in perspective and had a great time despite it all. What a stud.
As always, the Heartland Racing guys and gals put on an incredible event. Thank you!!!
Congratulations Skip on your fine ride too. You definitely overcame some adversity to finish strong.
Cheers,
MG
