Chileno Valley Feb. 11th… (Just too much fun to miss!)
I know most of you are foaming for Old Caz; figuring out the perfect bike and tire, matching your socks to your bar tape, debating what size cassette to run (I say as big as they come) and stalking other’s Strava. But did you know Chileno Valley is 3 weeks after Old Caz? And it’s all road. This means you don’t even have to wash your gravel bike, just hang’er up and start getting some road miles in. This year we have a “shorter” version of the loop in case 80 miles is just too much for Feb. 11th. Last year only 100 brave souls endured racing in the biggest storm of the year but we expect a solid turn out in the men’s and women’s field. You can read about Patrick Brady’s take on the day at RKP.
For now, let me dangle a few images that will tempt and inspire you.
