Tha @grallochgravel 10/10 recommend. 🎩 to @lukas_poestlberger for the win. Finally nailed my tire selection and feel like I’m getting the hang of gravel. Big thanks to @ventumracing for getting me out here and to @4seasoncollective and all the volunteers for the help!

Few know what the peak of the domestic road racing landscape was like in North American better than @rusty_woods . It's no secret that road cycling has radically changed in the last decade. Now that Woods has retired from the WorldTour, he's had time to reflect on his career, and one question has been on his mind: “Is road cycling dead in America?” Head to his newest piece on Velo to see what he thinks after returning to the US for the Sea Otter Classic in his new post-WorldTour racing life, and stay tuned for his thoughts after taking on one of the premier road races in the US, @levisgranfondo . 📸 @gettyimages + @bkamera @jennygkeller
