Emporia, Kansas could be called a boom town, but instead of gold or silver, it is the flint rocks on country roads that attract thousands and thousands of cyclists to the area for the Unbound Gravel event.
This midwestern community has less than 25,000 residents during the year. Unbound Gravel is responsible for adding 50% more people in Emporia once a year and making it the gravel riding capital of the world.
