While this is a gravel page, biking Mont Ventoux is relevant to everything I’ve ever done. We ride bikes to expand our boundaries of adventure and every outing may not be of that variety, but each stroke we take leads us there. Mont Ventoux is part of a special subset of world renowned climbs, especially […]

Since our mini-winter tour in February with the Huffmaster Hopper and Send It Sacramento was such a success, we couldn’t wait to head back up to NorCal for more! We’ll be up for three rides (maybe even four) between July 10 – 13 and hope you can make some or even all of these outings!

Chino Hills gravel hits a lot of high notes, but that’s also the reason some caution needs to take place. The two biggest questions I get about routes are how is the riding and what are the views like? The answers for Chino Hills are simple because it scores high in both, even providing a

RSVP on Strava or Facebook I’ve long awaited to adventure up in Siskyou County and couldn’t ask for more with the Greenhorn Gravel Grinder crew helping lead the way. We’ll be doing a good portion of their Saturday event (yes, they hold rides on Sunday as well) covering 58 miles with over 5K’ of gain,

We’ve been trying to slant towards highlighting shorter rides that still bring a robust experience and Pismo Preserve Gravel fills up those check boxes. Last year I combined my family vacation with a SLO GRVL Send It up to TV Tower Rd, but while I like coming mid-week to make San Luis Obispo’s Higuera St.

It’s hard to tell if you’ve never done a Taco Bell Century if it’s a good idea and maybe finishing one doesn’t clear it up either. Kevin and Priscilla of Grizzly Cycles are veterans with this being their fifth edition and perhaps the toughest. Doing a 105 mile clockwise loop out of Grizzly Cycles into

While proms have themes, the expectation that something similar could encapsulate a particular Sea Otter Classic is a bit of an overreach. Every year innovations and trends always progress, but change in the bike world doesn’t happen at a rapid nor glacial pace. Instead, I call it at human scale as there are no instant

We’re tightening up our route shorter than our regular with two options with the longer offering some new gravel. The first fourteen

We all want to make the most of an opportunity, but sometimes less is more. When I was coming out for my first Everyone Loves Raymond two years ago, I wanted to see it all and bike the ninety mile Kegger. Under ride organizer Henry’s suggestion instead of doing the combined routes, we did the

I would have never thought my favorite road race is on gravel, but the dynamics of Huffmaster is playful enough to serve as such. Last year was my first stab at this event going really well until it didn’t when inattentiveness caused me to get dropped twenty five miles in followed by a shifter battery
