Gravel & Grit blog - a roundup of our members' experiences at Gravel Nationals, Devil's Cardigan & Backroads Gravel. And the winner was,,,the weather 🌧️💨❄️

Winter weather tests the commitment to outdoor training, but as they say - it might rain on race day, and this season our 4F Femmes have certainly been tested by some truly horrid race conditions. We kick off with AusCycling Gravel National Championships in South Australia, with a race report from

Magical Mystery Tour: AusCycling eSports Club Series 🥇🥇🥉
That's a wrap on the AusCycling eSports Club Series. Both Zoe Stolton and Vanessa Johnson took the top step 🏆for femmes in Cat 6 and Cat 4 respectively, and 4F finished 3rd team in Cat 4.
Taking part in the series was not easy for users new to the MyWhoosh platform. Some of the specific equipment requirements and the disconnect between the app/website/club interface presented hurdles, and these were unfortunately not well-documented by AusCycling 😔Still not sure how the points worked, but we'll take the bling that came our way.
Next week is the National Champs. Struggling to find details & regs for this, so the Magical Mystery Tour continues 🤪

Good luck to our members (Bec, Yael, Jo & Lily) who are in Tassie this weekend racing The Devil’s Cardigan -the final Australian UCI Gravel World Champs qualifier.
It's a stunning course with 10km long climbs, challenging descents, and breath-taking views. And then there is the weather. The pressing question isn't what tyre pressure, it's what are you wearing (layers FTW). Also recommend the pies in Branxholm.
Rubber side down, ride it like you stole it femmes 👊

Congratulations to Nannup's newly crowned Tiger Tracks Gravel Local Legends: Mark Smith & Kade Dhue.
Mark is now a full-time Nannupian. He competed both days at Tiger Tracks Gravel, and on Sunday was a key first responder at the bunch crash that happened during the Big Tiger Groad race 🙏
This was Kade's first time competing at Tiger Tracks Gravel and he put in a cracking ride in the tough Elite category.
Many thanks to Bunbury Cycles for sponsoring the prizes for our Local Legends 🙏
