South Downs gravel sportive aftermath below. Almost literally no gravel to be seen :D The route must be a great one when its dry though, and enjoyed it regardless. A little warning/caution sign would have been nice from the organizers before a high speed gravel descent takes a turn onto an off-camber wet clay slide. 6/6 people I talked to crashed in the same spot. But fear not, when we had to cross a road on a pedestrian crossing at some point, plenty of caution signs :) Lets hope I'll be able to move my right arm tomorrow.
And anyway, Im just a roadie, I dont even know how to properly ride a bike. But yesterday certainly taught me some! Bike was 10/10, but I definitely need to sort out my gearing.
ps: looking at pre-ride photos I just realized I basically sanded off the black anodization from my cranks. ehh
