Description

It takes grit to ride in the cold. Philly has plenty of gritty riders & plenty of gravel. Advanced and novice riders alike will enjoy our Sunday morning Gritty Philly Gravel Series. Whether you are gravel curious or a gravel pro, this series will keep you moving throughout the dark days of winter. All levels start together on this conversational pace ride. We’ll regroup periodically and split into two groups if necessary. This is a no-drop ride, but previous mixed terrain experience is strongly recommended. (Stay tuned for Take A Friend Gravel Riding Days).
