I got together with some friends yesterday afternoon ahead of the Super Bowl to burn off a few calories before sitting down to watch the game. It's been since last fall that I've done any road riding. It was nice to be out again. The gravel roads we typically opt for are still ice covered in many areas so we kept to the pavement. The temp was just above freezing with very little wind—an ideal day for this time of year in Minnesota.

Some video from my ride yesterday from Northfield to Wanamingo, Mn for a rendezvous with some friends at Area 57 Cafe. It was such a beautiful winter-like spring day to be riding gravel. The temp was 26ºf (-3ºc) to begin the ride with light winds out of the east - and sunny skies! We rode a little more than 60 miles (97 km) with about 3000 feet (910 meters) of climbing.

It's nice to have some milder temps to work with so I can be out on my gravel bike. I've been missing it. Here's some video from my ride on Friday afternoon. Breezy with a temp of 41ºf (5ºc).

Here are a few snippets from our well-attended Tuesday Night Gravel ride out of Northfield, Mn with the Cannon Valley Velo Club. The temps were a little on the cool side (again) but a beautiful night otherwise. We had upwards of 40 riders but we did eventually break up into smaller, more manageable groups along the way. If you're in the Northfield area and are looking to take part in our rides, I'm sure there's a group that will be a good fit with your ability on the bike.

Here's some riding that we get living in NY city. The struggle is to get out and find some open roads which usually means a drive out for the day or a weekend event. But city riding can be fun too.. it's like racing but against cars

Nice videos! What's the riding like in Central Park? I imagine it attracts a lot of other cyclists, making it more difficult to dial up the effort.

Very cool, thanks for sharing.
Can you provide a bit more details about your camera setup? What do you use, where is it mounted, maybe a pic? Thanks.

Here are some snippets of video from our recent windy and cool Tuesday Night Gravel ride out of Northfield, Mn with the Cannon Valley Velo Club. We're experiencing upwards of 40 riders turning out for our 5:30 start from Bridge Square in the heart of the city. We break up into several groups along the way as the ride shakes out. Come join us if you're in the area!

yes, i know 1-handing it just under 50mph going downhill is ridiculously dumb, but alas...for science!

The ride with the horses looks like a lot of fun

Was this all filmed on the GoPro2?
Sorry if I missed it, it's just that my GoPro doesn't shoot that well, maybe I don't have color correction set up well.

I'm using a GoPro Hero 8 in front and a Hero 7 in the back. The newer version of cameras have internal stabilization built into them. I can't speak for how their ability to capture color has changed over the years but I do know they're considerably better than older versions.

I've been enjoying my gravel bike this spring which has been nice because I sort of neglected it last year in favor of more time spent on my road bike. I forgot how much I missed the solitude of quiet gravel roads. It's nice to be back.

The Heywood Ride for 2023 is in the books. Marty, Ben, and Michael, our hosts, couldn't have scripted better weather. Many thanks to them for putting on such a stellar event once again! The only downside for me was a broken rear derailleur cable at mile 40, leaving me to push a higher gear than my knees liked the final hour. But what a fun time and a great event! Check the video's description for links.

After the chilly spring we had, I'm kinda liking this heat—just a little. Here are a few snippets and photos from tonight's Tuesday Night Gravel ride.
