Many thanks 👍

I really like your videos mate..I can't wait for my MTB cycle scheme to finish and I'll get myself a Ribble Gravel AL or Planet X Tempest Ti...I much prefer gravel cycling over road cycling just because is much more fun and I don't have to deal with cars passing by and potentially knock me off the road!

[@themuddycyclist]

Thank you. I agree with you, cars are a real pain. Stick to off-road if you can. A gravel bike is great for those quiet country roads too.

I've got a spare pair of wheels with rd tyres, so I swap them depending on what I intend to ride😊

[@themuddycyclist]

That’s what I’d like to have

As a recreational rider, not a racer in any form, went road bike, MTB and then Gravel. Gravel, on the right day, right route goes better than either of the others. But the MTB can handle everything. Just a little (maybe a lot) slower on the road 😊 just glad to have all 3

[@themuddycyclist]

Wise words. If you’re lucky enough to have all 3 that’s ideal.

Well said good feedback on the practicality’s of a gravel bike . If you could only have one bike gravel would be it by a mile . If you’re a generic bike rider this is the bike for you . Would you consider a battery gravel bike ?

[@themuddycyclist]

I would consider a battery gravel bike, but just not yet. I see it as a one way door, once you walk through, you’re not going back to a analogue bike.

So, if gravel bikes are THAT great, here’s the acid test for your theory; I’ll give you a 💯’r for your old Giant MTB, tomorrow, for 💷👍🏻 Deal🤝🏻❓😉
You know where I am; just round the corner from you as you pass me on your way up to The Downs 🗺️😉

[@themuddycyclist]

No! I still want my mountain bike. When the weather changes my Giant is going to get a lot more use 🤞

No worries, be sure to let me know when you do decide to drag it out of the garage again.👍🏻
