When I last spoke to David Bailey three years ago , he was working on a total redesign of his hand-powered cycle and laying low. RAAM is one of the most physically punishing long distance bicycle races on the planet. As the name suggests, it runs across America, from California to Maryland, traversing deserts, the Rocky Mountains, the farmland of the Great Plains, and the rolling hills of the East Coast.

The RAAM is nothing to take lightly, and the fact that two of the riders will be attacking the event on handcycles adds additional complications to the overall challenge. We talked to David about the event, which begins in June. You can help by donating to their cause right here.

David bailey motocross instagram: The LEGEND himself, @davidbaileymx,

Racer X: David, I saw the news that you guys are racing this thing. Back in , I spoke to Micky [Dymond] and he had just completed the race with Ben Bostrom and Dave Mirra, so I know a little about how gnarly the race is. How did this come about with you and Doug? David Bailey: I actually remember reading that interview! The one thing Micky said he cared about was just getting the finishers medal.
