I want one as a reminder not to ride in sloppy conditions.
I feel that ‘Gravel’ bikes have been marketed in the UK as a winter option, which I think is totally wrong. Gravel is only acceptable in summer. I want a Dust bike, really.

you ride your bike in sloppy conditions?
I only go outside when its dry now...

This is a healthy opinion and I support it. I've no idea who decided that riding a gravel bike in the winter was a good idea. I imagine someone who stands to make a lot of money from people wearing out their components and continually buying wider, then narrower tyres in the hope they'll function in the mud.

They both make me want a rim braked CX/grave but then I remember we live in the UK and not Cali.
