But if you are a dedicated gravel-loving coffee monster, then you obviously need the perfect gravelly coffee bean to create your brew. Luckily the lovely people at GRVL have got just the thing….Ride Report - FNLD GRVL Photojournalist Phil Gale headed to Lahti, Finland for the recent FNLD GRVL event. By bringing an American-style ethos to a mixed Scandi and European audience, it sounds like the organisers of FNLD GRVL will have done a lot to shake up the status quo among existing gravel events.Armchair Adventure - Seven Serpents - Schnapps, storms and survivalWith mechanical gremlins putting a large spanner in the works practically before they had left the startline and cataclysmic weather conditions threatening to make a bad situation even worse, Claire Frecknall and Jo Burt did the sensible thing and engaged Gravel Holiday mode instead. With language barriers, 18km climbs and an excess of schnapps to deal with, it sounds like quite a challenge even without the racing aspect. Thanks for listening.
