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.

Here's a few from our Sulphur Mtn club ride, last week. Its a 45 mile ride, 3200' climbing, with 14 miles of dirt fire road from Ventura, over the mountain, down into Ojai and back on the Ojai trail bike path.


With free range cattle we crossed 5 or 6 of these.

My '73 Raleigh Super Course Eroica/gravel bike.

Shade break, it was over 90° in November in SoCal.


View from the top.




Heading home on the Ojai bike path.

I see seven people all saying "No, you go first". Looks like a fun feature to ride. In daylight.

Somewhere in the Cascade foothills west of Lake Cavanaugh, viewing Whitehorse and Three Fingers.



I don't have much snow riding experience, so trying to manage steep doubletrack on bald slicks was a bit interesting, heheh.

Perfect conditions for a winter ride. Well drained gravel temps in the 50's.
