Cyclocross and Gravelbiking (Recreational) This has to be the most physically intense sport ever invented. It's high speed bicycle racing on a short off road course or riding the off pavement rides on gravel like : "Unbound Gravel". We also have a dedicated Racing forum for the Cyclocross Hard Core Racers.

Back to Life: My Old Litespeed Ocoee

My old Ocoee has been sitting around for a couple years (now that I mtb on my Krampus). But I needed a more stout gravel road bike, as thats probly 60% of my riding. So I turned it into this.

Just got back from first ride. It was excellent.

The first real adventure. 68 miles of mostly gravel road looping from Dolores, CO. The bike performed just great. I would have been in trouble with anything smaller than the 1.75" tires. There was some mushy gravel out there.
