This year saw the inaugural Gravel Life Time Grand Prix that included six of the best known and toughest gravel and mountain bike races.  Cyclists from all disciplines came to compete for the $250,000 prize money and they did not disappoint.  Although the event was marred by the terrible murder by one of the race winners, Mo Wilson, the series has gone on to provide an amazing spectacle and promote off road cycling in the US.   My gift to you is 14 days of free coaching.
