Gravelistas

Playing with the dirty tracks has become a notorious trend around the globe. From the hot & dry land of east Africa to the cold & windy of Iceland the new sport is rapidly expanding at an accelerated speed that the cycling industry is experiencing.

In the last few years the Gravel has taken different levels that even the UCI has placed some PRO races for the teams & spectators. New range of bikes,clothing and accessories have swamped the shops and magazines and the road cyclists are now transiting to the new discipline.

It is also interesting to see those adamants mountain bikers also joining in the part and experience lengthier rides that previously were only a long distance mirage.I have personally started riding gravel for a while now and I quite love it.

I hope it is not an age thing.

I have ben using my gravel bike on the roads which gives me extra comfort thanks to the soft & wider tyres makes., and this little extra helps enables me to go out of the normal path encountered with the eyesight, but also the pleasure to get dirty with sand,stones & mud.

I have been travelling and exploring the South American countries in the last few years discovering new roads,people and sceneries that we are really proud to launch a long term relationship with the team of Gravel Coast in Chile.

The October edition will be the first, thanks to the Covid-19 it has been postponed and we will have a small group of us joining in plus a full pack of other adventures.
