Shownotes

  • Gravel Inspiration – E's are good
    For anyone who listened to pop music in the 1990s, the chorus of The Shamen’s Ebeneezer Good will bring a smile (or a grimace) to your face. Despite being banned from the BBC's airways in the UK at the time, this didn’t stop it being enormously successful and it ended up topping the UK’s music charts for 4 weeks in September 1992. While we’re not condoning taking drugs, the line “Though very much maligned and misunderstood, E’s vibe up the place like no other man could” fits so well with the rhetoric behind e-gravel bikes that it was too good not to use. Can the ‘E’s are good’ epithet be applied to e-gravel bikes? Olly takes one of Canyon’s new Grizl:ONs out in to the wilds of Yorkshire in search of gravelly adventure to find out.

  • News - Flat out, tongue out gravel racing at Gravel Fondo Limburg
    The end of April saw nearly 1500 gravel racing fans line up on the startline at the 2024 Gravel Fondo Limburg. With coveted places for the UCI Gravel World Championships up for grabs for anyone who finished in the top 25% of their respective age categories, the racing was fast and furious. If you'd like to see what the event was like, check out our photo essay here.

  • News - TransNepal event launched
    Can you imagine traversing the whole of the most mountainous country on earth by gravel bike? If you sign up for the newly launched TransNepal gravel event, that is what you will be undertaking. Starting at an altitude of 4600m and finishing at just 100m altitude, riders will cover 400 km during the six stages of riding. Mind-blowing scenery, fantastic gravel trails and an incredibly warm welcome are just some of the highlights being offered. ome of the highlights being offered.
