Isn’t part of the fun to ride trails that are sketchy on a road bike with big tyres? I once found my way into a MTB park in NZ by accident. I ended up doing a flip in a sharp corner but it was great fun!
There is no such thing as "fun". Gravel is serious business. You must have absolutely the right tool for the job and we must discuss the merits of all options including speed over multiple surfaces as that is vitally important for all the racing we all do.
