Face Plant Posted December 22, 2017 Share Gravel Cat is a go! Let hope there is a lot of interest! Just bear in mind that there are some technical parts on the 70km race that you may have to portage on the gravel bike see you all there Edited December 22, 2017 by Face Plant pix101 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brandon91 Posted December 22, 2017 Share its all rideable. just be gentle on the one lil hill and downhill it was my downfall in both attempts on my cx, would be cool to have a seperate start to interfere less in the first 10k of speed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brandon91 Posted December 22, 2017 Share the one where you cross the main gravel road..., both times i cut my tires beyond repair. also run ghetto tubeless with a old 26er tube... the excess rubber on the rim helps avoid pinch flats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because I remember that rider had to portage through some of the water gullies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Face Plant Posted January 2, 2018 Share Hi Ben the Gravel cat will be captured when you collect your number board, it is not specified on the online entry system. Please just remember to tell the folks at registration that you will be riding a gravel bike. We will then give further details about the batch start at the race briefing. regardsPJ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
