This winter we’ll be riding a lot outdoors as well, but instead of sketchy dark roads we’ll try to explore some more gravel paths.
First stop: Le Coffee Ride in the Ardennes for the weekend!

  1. Mooie video alweer, de Ardennen zijn wel prachtig in herfstkleuren.. Grappige verspreking wanneer een Nederlandse boomwortel een carrot wordt 😀

  2. Remember riding through Stavelot on LBL and then going back on Sunday to watch the Pro's. It was 2016 and it was very cold and wet, in fact, snow meant the Pro"s route was reduced. Would like to give again with Cross bike and explore like you guys.

  3. Nice ride and interesting contend. The gravel bikes are beautiful. The scenes from your country are fantastic thou too cold for me. I ride around 80 -to 85F the whole year. Keep posting your great videos.

  4. Autumn in the Ardennes is the best! And Le Coffee Ride is the perfect place for a coffee stop. I'm looking forward to making another visit.

  5. LOVE IT. One of your best videos, Martijn! Great scenery, top tunes and superb drone work. Love the Coffee ride jerseys and gilets too! I am going to Oudenaarde in July but can't find any mention of a coffee shop that is open before 10 am! Can you know of a good coffee shop there that opens before 10 am?

  6. Hi, Do you have experience with focus paralane? I;m looking for gravel/winter bike and wondering which size to buy – 181 cm tall, long leg, shorter torso, not too stretched?

  7. Do you think the Mares with a 2x setup would work well enough for fast group rides (35kph+ avg), or is the geometry and non-aero frame going to hold a rider back?

  8. Hi! Klopt het dat dit van origine een cyclocross bike is en niet een 'gravelbike'? Ik wil graag een gravelbike kopen(, maar alles uitverkocht overal) en heb deze Mares 9.7 tweedehands gevonden in mijn maat. Is de fiets zoals die geleverd wordt comfortabel genoeg om te gebruiken voor bikepacking/gravel avonturen of moet er eerst aan gesleuteld worden (zoals bijv. ander zadel, groter bereik)?
