Thanks for joining us for our spring social at on Tuesday and making it such a special event.

🥇We were all “full of amaze” by .wertz tales of a privateer winning the top gravel races in the US and all over the world!

🤫Brennan gave us top secrets on riding and racing in gravel, and reminded us how lucky we are to live here in Marin. Keep a lookout for Brennan repping his Scott jersey on training rides in our hood, and best of luck in the remaining 2026 season, Brennan!

🚙Big thanks to Price Family INEOS Grenadier for hosting the event, our very own Jeff Sanchez the MC, and our events team and volunteers who all pitched in.

✨A shoutout goes to junior riders , , .1202 and .gray28 with their vision into the future of racing. Maybe they’ll get a Grenadier SUV just like Brennan to scope out gravel courses before the races!

📸Special thanks goes to our event photographer .photos for taking excellent pics of the super-fun night.
