First day back on gravel in a year with the Grizl’s first ride. Dreamy views, low oxygen and stoke, but a day on the bike nonetheless.

Old Fall River Road is a one-way gravel road in Rocky Mountain National Park that isn’t open to vehicles yet so just me and some other (much faster) cyclists and runners out today. I took the paved descent as the climb to 12k feet was tough on me. Love this bike so much and it was such a beautiful first ride even though I was a bit under recovered. You know the ride that never gets easier? I cracked a smile around Mile 33 😅
