Shit Gravel Grinders Say

I average like 20kmh on long stuff

Fucking boast posts.

QR is now an old standard. It was fine but it can now get in the bin.

What a proud achievement 🙃

What if you’re over 34 and too shit for the real race?

Fucking hell that’s cursed.

I miss when riding "gravel" was all about being underbiked..

“I think my wheel is buckled”

That was my brother this morning, who’d failed to seat his tyre properly after fixing a flat on Saturday…

We bumped into the Porteur gravel group on an offroad ride last week.

haven't been on rim brakes in a looong time
