Tried Riding Gravel ... Meh

Put 40mm tires on my endurance bike to hit some gravel levee roads where I live.

I was very excited which lasted about 5 minutes. As beautiful as the scenery was the constant shudder through the frame made it unpleasant.

The gravel was sbkut the size of quarters so the degree of shuddering wasnt the issue just the constistency of it. It was like riding the chip seal roads they probably have in Hell.

So its back to the road for me and a new search for forest riding.
