Gravel Biking
Overview
Gravel biking is what happens when a road bike grows up and goes exploring. On chunkier tyres and a comfier frame, you swap busy roads for farm tracks, forest trails, towpaths and the kind of quiet lanes that make riding a pleasure again. Road-bike pace with mountain-bike freedom.
It is welcoming and low-faff. If you can ride a bike you can ride gravel, and the relaxed geometry is forgiving for beginners and long days alike. Routes range from gentle traffic-free spins to proper backcountry adventures.
The guides on adventuro run gravel rides, skills sessions and tours for all abilities. Get comfortable picking your line over loose ground and the whole map opens up.
