    Awesome work designing that course too then! Unfortunately I can’t make Raiders this year. Maybe next!

    Chris, you are an absolute star! Couldn't have imagined myself racing so soon after an injury but that's just me. Completely enjoyed your style of just enjoying riding a bicycle. That's the best style in my book!

    Bits falling off does seem to be a feature this year. I reckon you made the best of it though, lovely weather, beautiful scenery and good company. Just needed more dogs and it would have been a perfect ride in the country. Thanks very much, I enjoyed that. Looking forward to the next one.

    Bravo Chris. Q: would you consider trying the red shift suspension stem? Would take a lot of impact pressure off of your wrist… I have one fitted to my Rondo Ruut CF2 and it is my favorite bit of kit.

  • @ChrisHallRides

    @ChrisHallRides

    Ай бұрын

    Yeah I’ve been really tempted to get one and try it out actually. I have at home one of the fox suspension gravel forks but didn’t fit it to this bike as I’m a tad worried it’ll affect the geometry. Th enve bars are also surprisingly good in terms of flex as well so they help a lot but yeah would be interested in trying one

    Sorry to hear about the mechanical - setbacks like that are a drag. Still, you seem to have had a nice time and the views look stunning :) Cycling is amazing!

    Nice ride...it had everything...including a nasty mechanical. 😜 Looks like a killer course. Question: in this sort of gravel event, do most riders use MTB shoes/SPD cleats?

    yep most riders will be using some sort of mtb system
