Damn, that Farmers Daughter ride looks like a fun day. Maybe I need to shop for a nice cross bike............

It seems as if the author acknowledges that he knows a little bit about cycling, so it is pretty disappointing to me that he only mentions two places one could get a gravel bike, but No. 22 is obviously better because they do titanium.

I don't think an article like this one really impacts us as cyclists, though. And if someone chooses to go to No. 22 and buy a bike without researching any other builders, well, they'll still get a nice bike. But I don't think there will be too many of them, and I don't imagine this will impact the business of the builders we like. In fact, this might drive one or two more their way who DO actually do the research.

Oh well. Nice bike. But it is Just A Bike. :rolleyes:
