We cyclists follow trends like 13-17 year old girls. Someone says “gravel” and we say how much and where should I spread it (gross). Remember fat bikes? Me neither. But my point is we’re lemmings. We only question the “man” when he insists on selling us disc brakes. We don’t question the man about gravel.

I mean sometimes at a gravel event there’s beer! Have you ever!?!?

A gravel post is certainly more enjoyable than one where some sleeve napkin shut in complains that people spend too much money on *insert current old guy blabber about the price of -bar tape -chains -tubes -sunglasses -carbon frames blah blah blah...get off my steel is real lawn* and more interesting as well. For some.

Takes all kinds. Even the guys who think riding on gravel makes them some sort of superhero. I see you Batman riding the same surface I rode my Hutch Pro Raider on....35 years ago...like you just invented it.
