    Cold and rain = miserable rides but don't forget, winter miles = summer smiles 😉

    Cold weather bothers me a lot even I live in a sub-trophical area but seeing you guys overcome this made me feel a little bit more confident about myself. Appreciated.

      Likewise, hope you had a good ride and hope to see you out there at another event sometime soon!

    For me, being cold on the bike sucks. Being cold AND wet is beyond miserable. Yet, I ride year-round in all-weather conditions because, well, I'm not fond of the indoor trainer. 🤣
    Sorry you both experienced a challenging, miserable ride. Glad you made it okay and hope there wasn't any lingering issues due to possible hypothermia.
    Thanks for sharing, sir 🍻

      Thanks Karl, win some and lose some with the weather I guess. I still think I prefer it to extreme heat at some summer events. Thanks for watching!

    I think I saw you all. It was a great 20 then a cold and wet 20 but overall a good time.

      Indeed, that first half was great like it always is. Second half was a good chance to test out the cold weather gear haha.

    Enjoy your videos. Just realized we were in the Sprinter van parked next to you guys that morning. Was wife and my first gravel race. Quite a cold, memorable experience. See ya down the road!

    • @backofthegravelpack
      @backofthegravelpack  10 месяцев назад

      Awesome, you certainly did end up with quite the experience for your first one! Was your van the one with the pop-up top? Looked pretty awesome.

    Thanks so much for filming and sharing! My husband finished right at 4 hours and like you said once you stop peddling hypothermia starts to set in. Again thanks so much for sharing your video.
