as for the 'new' dirt highways, super fun. but not exactly what I call mtb'ing either.

I dont understand this post.

- It seems like you are saying this isnt the type of riding that a gravel bike is for.
- You show an MTB in it, but then later in the thread you respond to it being called an MTB trail by laughing and clarifying and calling it a dirt sidewalk.


So do you not consider the picture to be mountain biking?
Or do you consider it too easy to be mountain biking(by calling it a sidewalk) in which case a less technical bike like a drop bar gravel bike could excel? If thats the case, then it refutes what you say earlier, so I would guess this isnt accurate.
Are you calling the path in the picture a dirt highway? If so, what is a dirt highway? If not, what is a dirt highway?


You have my curiosity for sure!
