Welcome to the Mixed Surfaces Podcast where we discuss all things about riding bicycles. This week your hosts,  Iowa Bike Gang Eria, Jason and Carol talk about upcoming events, rides and races.  Fired up for our earlier episode with Casey from Iowa Gravel Series where he discussed upcoming gravel events, we decided to talk about what we are looking forward to this year.  There’s a combination of local events such as the Kalona Horseshoe www.IowaGravelSeries.com here in Iowa, and then further afield where all three of us will be racing at the Gravel Locos in Texas www.gravellocos.com.  You’ll have to stay posted to this site to hear about the showdown between Eria and Jason as they tackle the 100-mile route. Eria and Carol will be in Steamboat Gravel in CO in August for some fun out West,  www.sbtgrvl.com and Jason discusses wanting to do the PANTS route, a very fun 300 mile ride almost all of it on backroads and gravel from North to South PA.  Jason now lives in the flatter area of NC, but he’s no stranger to hills. He’ll need his climbing legs:  PANTS has a whopping  27,000+ feet of climbing. 

We hope you enjoy this episode.  We’d love to hear your comments and if you like what we are doing, please give us a like and share.
