    Is there no Gravel forum?

    Things that make you frown :(

    As an engineer that worked in automotive electronics for 6+ years, it's horse blinders and no concept of the real world. 3 years from retirement, I keep explaining this weekly. They should have "what real humans are like" classes in engineering school

    Lynskey mullet gravel. Trying to fit into the coastal Carolina flatlands. Ordered in December when it was 50% off, just got it, took the box to the LBS, apologized a few times. The guy was understanding. First drop bar bike I've owned, what can go wrong

    Columbia trail intel?

    Good for you I bought both my kids their own knives ~9. Many relatives got mad at me: Relative: what if they cut themselves? Me: so? Relative now really angry I figure not knowing how to cook is worse than a few cuts.

    eye protection

    Been using Tifosi Podium XC for years. Especially the progressive lenses are awesome. I have long eyeballs (aka froggy) so can't have close-in glasses. These do a good job of being away and still blocking wind
