The Road Most Traveled Gravel Cycling Podcast

Join me as I chat with Lucas Guyton, director of the Big River Gravel Series. Lucas talks about picking up cycling after his father died and how important racing became to him. He also talks about the struggles inherent to race directing and how he has found a way to succeed even in this endeavor.

The Driftless Gravel will make you hurt. With 10,000 feet of climb in 100 miles, this race is like a monument in the Midwest. I had an incredible conversation with Race Director Mat Fassbinder about the race and his community. I'll be at this race in April, and I hope you'll join. But bring your climbing legs and courage. You'll need them both.
