  • ​‪@cameronmason‬ takes you along for his home UCI gravel series race, The Gralloch. Fast, loose, and close racing around the Galloway forest in Scotland. Watch Cameron race against World Tour's ‪@INEOSGrenadiers‬ Connor Swift, other international gravel pros, and UK domestic riders. See his analysis and onboard footage from the 113km race!

    Cameron - I am the person that designed the course - 5 years of playing around on gravel bikes and going on adventures to get to know the forest, so happy you liked it - I had no idea anyone would be so FAST. You have seen about 1/3 of what we have here - you must do Raiders Gravel as we get to play on other tracks! -See you here again very soon and thanks for doing the school run in Gatehouse!

      Looks a great course. Hoping to enter next year. Would love to see a similar event in the Highlands too!

    Looks way more fun than the mud fest that is Unbound. Scenery is better in Scotland than in Kansas too.

    This is without a doubt the best video I’ve seen of this event and I’ve watched loads. Thanks so much for taking the time to film and edit this.

    Thanks Cameron for the upload. Riding those speeds on that rough gravel and for 3 hours! Amazing.

      Soon will be - the US giant Discovery network has bought the rights to show the UCI MTB and also the UCI Gravel series - personally I'm not so sure its a good thing in that everything will disappear behind a stiff paywall.

    Fabulous insight. Can I ask, what was your hydration strategy. Get through with two jumbo bottles, or really need camel back ?

    Gravel needs a World Cup promoter/ organiser and proper coverage, like MTB, CX, etc

    Cameron, always fighting/struggling in the leading group. Bárbaro. And the road for when. Salud Cameron

    Looked like mostly Foresty roads. Bound to suit the Roadmen more than one with a few tricky narrow tech sections in it. So fast any trouble and the gaps would open in a massive way.

    Why so many dropped chains in gravel racing of late, seems both 2x & 1x, Sram & Shimano riders are suffering.
    I've only dropped a 1x chain once and that was pushed off by a stick that got picked up. Rattled over plenty of pretty big, proper rocks at speed in Snowdonia etc and never shipped a chain... what's going on?

      I think a lot of riders are probably running road groupsets.

    Why in the world UCI has that bike path race in Italy for their championship when they could be headlining a route like this I can't understand.

      The golazo crew are submitting a world champs bid - but as we know it’s not all about the ride quality with UCI ☹️It was a great event, super trails and well run.
