Dierks Bentley takes part in charity bike race — and encounters a few roadblocks along the way

Dierks Bentley took part in in the Gosh Darn bike rice, and it looks like it was quite the adventure.

The superstar chronicled his journey on the 100-mile trip on Instagram, revealing that he endured three flat tires and got lost along the way, adding seven miles to the trip. The journey also began with Dierks and his fellow riders crossing a creek at 7 a.m. in 40-degree weather that left him with freezing-cold feet.

Clips show Dierks carrying his bike as he wades through a creek, and cycling a winding road as wind blows in his face. “I need the eagle to carry me home,” he says, panning to the bald eagle and American flag emblem on his shirt.

But Dierks persevered and completed the excursion, which took more than 10 hours. “It was…..fun?” Dierks writes in the caption about the “epic” day.

Gosh Darn, an annual gravel race in Middle Tennessee, benefits Oasis Bike Workshop the helps youth refurbish bicycles for transportation. Dierks also used to host the Miles & Music for Kids motorcycle event in Nashville.
