Context: I work at a LBS and take pictures on group rides to help promote the shop through the social medias. Most of the time I’m just trying to get a picture without dropping my phone. This is a small collection of pictures from group gravel rides that I’ve taken over the past year or so- they are my favorites. Enjoy.

Cool photos, especially 4-7 👌🏼
Suspect? Those roads look pristine.
Man, if this is suspect, I live in hell lol. Most of my off-road is riverbed and I have some hard packed stuff but 25% is like silt and deep sand.. this is why my gravel bike that I’m building currently is going to be using 2.2 inch tires. I have an XC bike and it’s pretty decent for the dirt but I can’t stand writing that thing on pavement and I have to link the two together for an actual substantial ride. I kind of wish I had roads like this though.
There’s no way this is on the east coast lol, I’ve never seen gravel that pristine. We’ve had heavy rain this year and it demolished all the gravel roads to the point I want a mountain bike.
Beautiful shots
What all city has cage mounts to the bottom of the down tube ?
Further context needed 😂: this is Iowa. Our gravel really can vary from absolute hero hard packed gravel to super chunk that makes you question life choices all within the same ride. I appreciate the kind words 😃
