You know my schedule who knows when I will ever get to ride a true gravel ride.

Didn’t think about it until I bought the checkpoint but I should bought another emonda ALR frame with ultegra Di2 and just built another bike. At the time I had the parts for it and I would have used the crashed emonda strictly for racing. OH well. I didn’t need another road bike, and I didn’t have a gravel bike so here we are.
The bike shop I do biz with, the owner just has a Checkpoint for road riding and is using the Vittoria Terrano Zero 700x38 TLR version setup tubeless and said they work great for when he does any dirt\gravel riding and are fantastic on the road.
