Description

It takes grit to ride in the cold. Philly has plenty of gritty riders & plenty of gravel. Advanced & novice riders will enjoy our Sunday morning Gritty City Gravel Series p/b KRT. 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 and fitness is strongly recommended. New to gravel? Arrive by 9:00am for a quick clinic on how to navigate mixed terrain.
