In between, Watts and Tyler review some of the tech highlights from the show, talk about the future of gravel racing and more of the usual (and usually…OK, sometimes) entertaining banter. Enjoy, and happy weekend!

Amanda Batty is awesome and hilarious! I was bummed when she stopped writing over at Pink Bike. She would be fantastic to have write for you guys and would likely give Watts a run for his money in seeing how much shit could be stirred up.
