I have a buddy who did a recon ride last weekend. He is doing the XL. Here is what his uncle had to say about the course (he is multiple XL finisher) 1. The course looks like it was designed by someone who has never…
A gravel race calendar would be awesome! One place to go to view all races or a large portion of races would make it so much easier to plan events I wanted to attend. Users could add other events like grass roots, large…

I have been on some races in rural Kansas and Arkansas where my computer losses connectivity. Sometimes it will have me turning on a road that doesn't exist, or will go haywire on directions to next turn. I always…
I am 6' 1" also and rode the large. I had no issues. I have it for sale if you want to save some money. 2019 Rival 1X cutthroat.
I used them on my Cutthroat for my longer rides. From personal experience, use these bottles first. I found myself getting my fingers/bottles too close to the moving spokes when I got tired and lost concentration. I do…
She shipped today. Of course it will be -25 Windchill all weekend. I really doubt my wife will allow me to ride it through the house.
1X. I just like the simplicity of 1X Found out today it will be another 5-10 days. I have waited 2 months, what is another 2 weeks.
I ordered the Lynskey yesterday. 50% off the price and another 20% promotion. Etched logo, External routing, Rival AXS XPLR, HED Emporia 700 cc, FSA adventure 42 flared handlebars, no other upgrades, just stock items.…
I am sadly looking to trade out my Cutty for a more one road bike. I love my bike, but it struggles on Tarmac and tight gravel. There seems to be some amazing deals right now, which is really confusing me on which bike…
If you are driving in a car, and you look out the window at the gravel roads, and wonder where that road goes....You might be a gravel rider.
Does anyone have experience with the new Lauf Seigla? https://www.laufcycles.com/ I have been contemplating selling my 2019 Cutty for a new ride and the Lauf has me really thinking about it. Any preference on the Core…
My training got derailed a couple of different times with family. I ended up doing the 50. My course was great, no mud. I had a friend ride the 200 and what the race director said in the riders meeting was not was…
Dang just got my deferral email from 2022 Unbound 200 $270 Unbound 100 $160 Just about to price me out
I started in the middle at a B&B and went East to West. I chose that way as I had my wife meet at various spots for refill. No real advantage either way. The trailhead at Clinton is pretty wide open and not much…
I live 2 hours south of the Katy. Peak Fall Colors can be between Oct 1 and Oct 15. I am not sure what Fall will look like this year due to lack of rainfall. Good Luck and enjoy the Katy
I did my own Itinerary. Many bed and breakfasts along the route. You might look at this website to see if this helpful…

What I liked Multiple shake out ride options instead of just one big one Volunteering to bypass lottery The course-even though it was the same as 2019. I did the 100 mile course and there was enough of a challenge for…
