Not knowing how something works and not being able to comprehend how something works are two different things. I’d wager that the vast majority of those to whom you explain it are able to understand. The person in in the video however, mocks the same people. It is very elitist and condescending.
If people like that are indicative of the way gravel is going then I’m happy to just ride solo in the woods. Already DK has become an elite focused event. Even gravelcyclist.com has become focused on elite riders and association with celebrity insiders where they used to be about the regular guys riding bikes
