Oh wow, super cool! When is it? September? Are you going to be team leader?

August 14….yeah, technically I am a “team leader” for one of our teams of 4, but that is really just for registration. One guy registers all 4 riders to ensure the team stays together through the selection process.

The irony is that we are gonna have a huge contingent from our club, but I won’t be wearing our kit. I got accepted onto the ENVE Racing Team this year and SBT GRVL is one of the team races for 2022, so I’ll be wearing my ENVE kit.

That's a nice area to gravel.

I will be drawing further on the BC gravel whiteboard in 2022. Tentative plans are 3 Kamloops area rides in May, the epic 200kms 5000+ m Fraser Canyon loop (three times postponed over 2 years due to epic rain, Covid and epic fires) early June, Fairmont/Radium hotsprings area rides in August (3 rides and 8 hikes) and then another 3 Kamloops area rides in fall colours (October). Solo or with select club members embracing the slowly spooned pain. The hotprings area rides and hikes with my wife.

Adding to the list....just grabbed a slot for Big Sugar in Bentonville AR on Oct. 22.

Shaping up to be a big gravel year...Driftless 100 on Apr 30, SBT GRVL in August and now Big Sugar in October.

Seem to be....been back on the bike for 2 weeks, mostly endurance riding on the trainer. Have gotten up to 2.5 hours with only minor discomfort. Ended up spending big $$ to get one of the Specialized 3D printed saddles and adjusting the tilt slightly on it to get semi-comfortable. Things are slowly improving....

The good news is that I managed to get out yesterday at lunch for an hour ride and never even thought about "the area", so I am taking that as a big win.

Just what we need, more tilted saddles in our midst LOL.

Good to hear you’re on the mend.

LOL…it is only down a degree or two and it may just be where the original trainer saddle was.

No changes to the saddles on my road and gravel bike. 😎
