i wish you luck, but you may honestly want to reconsider.

riding gravel for the first time in the dark on no sleep sounds like a recipe for problems. also, dont underestimate how much riding off pavement will slow you down. "gravel" is sure fun to ride, but you just dont generally carry as much speed as you would on blacktop.
