I have a 2016 Kona Sutra (the touring version with the 3x9 drivetrain) that I rode at this year's Almanzo and the 5000. I DNF'd Almanzo but that was not the bike's fault at all. I also have an All City Macho Man that I…
I was planning to do a gravel race down in southern Illinois this October, the Ill Kanza . But today they announced that USA Cycling is going to sanction the event and that participants must purchase a 1 day license for…
Sounds like an awesome day!
I run 45NRTH Gravdal's on my winter bike. They are fantastic on ice but heavy, slow, and noisy otherwise. My commute is all city streets which are salted. But I come across plenty of ice patches, especially in the new…

Is the forecast high for this year's Barry really 71 degrees!!??! I won't know how to dress for a Barry that warm! I do think I will bring a bandanna in case I need to cover my face. It might get dusty out there.
I picked up a barely used 2011 Surly Pugsley for $700 this past spring and I am really happy with the bike. It's so much fun to ride! I plan on riding it in next year's Landrun100 which should be interesting to say the…
Oh good golly this author's logic is stupid. Because drivers can squash cyclists we shouldn't be allowed on the road? Well then roads should never ever cross train tracks and the chicken shouldn't be allowed to cross…
I have a set of HED Belgium+ which are 25mm wide and I've run 26mm Gravelkings on road rides with no problems.
What chain lube is recommended for dusty roads? I've been using Finish Line dry teflon but want to see what's better for dry dusty days.
