We are hosting an open house / Q&A to talk about gravel this Saturday, December 1st, starting at 12:30 in the afternoon RAIN OR SHINE. This social event is a great way to learn about riding gravel without leaving the city limits. Don’t have a gravel bike just yet? No problem. There were be demo bikes on site to check out, but you will need to bring your own bike for the ‘dirt crit’.

Bring the family as this is a family friendly event, with a bounce house, popcorn machine, and cornhole games.

We are also going to toss a dirt crit in the mix (if weather permits) and run hot laps around the building. Rain or shine!
