Who is riding Unbound XL? Maddy Nutt, Heather Jackson, Rob Britton and Peter Stetina among big names to watch in 350-mile race in Kansas

It’s nearly time for Unbound Gravel this weekend in Emporia, Kansas, and whilst most eyes will be on the 200-mile race which attracts most of the elite and professional gravel riders, several big names are opting for the ultra-distance Unbound XL race, totaling 356.5 miles (573km).

Mirroring the 360 race at The Traka, Unbound XL is the longest event on offer in Emporia, alongside Unbound 25, 50, 100 and 200 (which come in at 44km, 79km, 171km and 333km respectively in 2026).
