I use Shimano road pedals. I like the larger pedal surface. More comfort. Never had a problem walking around and cleats are an item you should replace every so often anyway. If you already have road pedals and shoes,…
Just an update. I took it for another ride the next day and it shifted another inch or so. But again, no loss of pressure or sealant leaking. So I aired up the tire to about 10 psi past the recommended max and let it…
Yes, I heard more than once that this resembled a BWR type race. I didn't notice if Mohoric used a dropper post this race, it was kind of a sketchy decent. I read an article where Wout himself said he was not very good…
So Keegan showed he could hang with the big boys, great result for him. Honestly if Wout hadn't had his punctures and mechanicals he probably would have rode away with it, but that is part of gravel racing. From the…
So I mounted this tire tubeless on Sunday. Everything went great. I took it for a short spin around the block to make sure everything was good. Tuesday came and I took it for a proper gravel ride. Now when I mounted the…

So I've been running tubeless for about a year now. Love it, no problems whatsoever.......until yesterday. Just before my ride I thought "It's been since the end of May when I last added sealant, I should do that when I…
Just like Jeff Foxworthy, keep it going: If you've ever rode on the wrong side of road to "draft" off a standing corn field....You might be a gravel rider. If you've ever just randomly squeezed someone's tire to check…
Only about 4,000 euros!!! Bargain. Didn't Sven Nyes try something like this at DK a few years back and it failed him and left him unable to finish the race?
Just watched Adams race report of youtube. According to him, Pete had got his bottle and put it in the cage when Adam attacked. He said he really opened up his gap in the ensuing windy single track section as he had…

So, this is not about whether the UCI should run a gravel world championship race. What this is about is all the hate for the course. Every post I saw yesterday had the same responses: "It wasn't a real gravel race, too…

Went to replace my BB90 bottom bracket bearings on my Trek Checkpoint because they were 3 years old and creaking. Pulled the crankshaft, popped out the bearings and pulled the plastic sleeve out and found this little…
Did anyone catch the Dateline show about the murder of Moriah? I believe it was called "The Last Ride". It got the full treatment, starting with the "boyfriend" angle, then the evidence, then the hunt and capture, to…
