  • 11 brave souls ventured out at sunset to take ride a gravel century celebrating the summer solstice and the shortest night of the year. This was a gravel bike adventure where nobody knew what to expect. We took on a challenging and untested mixed-terrain route in Yakima Washington. Watch to see if we made it to the end and experience riding epic gravel in Yakima through the night with a full moon and the promise of an early sunrise. The route had singletrack, gravel roads, paved bike paths, and quiet streets to make an epic gravel bike challenge in the style of a gran fondo. Add in some hike-a-bike and it was a challenging adventure.

      You have a year to come up with an entirely new route. 😜

      Lots of shenanigans for sure. We lost a few friends out there along the way.

      @@TroyOnTrailsfatalities and attrition on long group rides are to be expected.

    And your certain the missing 8 weren't devoured by trail chupacabras? I hear they're out there in the wilds of Yakima.

      I cannot confirm they all survived. Some of them may have been eaten.
