Wondering if you should register if you just want to ride a sweet gravel route and not "race" it? Hell yeah, ya can. Choose your own adventure: Get in the dusty mess from the gun…sit back and ride at your own pace…or gather some pals and fondo-style group ride the route.
And remember, the later you finish, the more people at the finish line cheering you home. ‘Course there may not be any beer left lol.
We intentionally scheduled our event on Saturday, so as not to conflict with cyclocross. Hmmmm…wonder if anyone’s tough enough to ride 100 kms of gravel Saturday then race cross on Sunday?
