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.

Yep. This is from the hills near the northern edge of the greater Los Angeles area, looking south towards the ocean. The clump of tall buildings is downtown LA. The furthest dark lumps is Catalina Island. The dark hills with the green areas in the middle of the pic is Griffith Park. On the other side of those hills is the Hollywood sign.

Nothing special but a rare opportunity in the Cotswolds... nice fresh powdery snow!!! and overtaking the rare cars at 26mph was fun.

Nice - what tires are you running? (I've been contemplating taking my bike out on the unplowed "seasonal" roads in my area - but with all the short, very steep, hills we have here I suspect it might be an exercise in futility)

My first post here in quite awhile. I got in a great winter ride yesterday, some ice, lots of downed trees but quite exhilarating. The pix was taken along the Gwynns Falls Trail.
