Gravel Bikes

I’ve fitted new tires for the summer. While I’m still undecided on the tan-wall look versus the classic all-black, there’s feel like a smoother roll.

Tan looks great

That bike is sick AF! Looks too fast for me

The last gravel tour I did was the Oregon Cascades Volcanic Arc (OCVA) the route was built by the guys at OMTM.
It’s pretty epic! And we edited it in the start and tail end in order to end at or near home. I can’t believe I haven’t posted here about it… it’s an amazing route and one to have on your bucket list if you live in Oregon for sure!

On the first day we also summited mt. Theilsen on foot https://www.google.com/search?q=mt+thielsen&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&hl=en-us&client=safari

@Brock I've immediately added this to my bucket list... but I need to know the details, where is this? what route? - it looks incredible!

@Tyler
It’s called the Oregon Cascade Volcanic Arc or (OCVA) I’ll add a link to the route

The OMTM guys did it pretty fast. We opted for a more enjoyable speed and completed it in 6 days. We stayed at two hotsprings and checked out a lot of off route water features and springs along the way.

Not really a gravel bike, it defies categories.

@Brock You guys are really doing this bicycle thing right ️.

[Brock]

@RobeOfTheMagi trying to at least! I wish I had more time to ride… your Riv looks sick! I bet it rips on gravel

[RobeOfTheMagi]

@Brock with it’s velocity quill rims and RH Herse Oracle Ridge tyres it is really swift on many surfaces .
