  • Colin Strickland snuck into town and was kind enough to let me plan a route out for him. I was expecting to film a fairly chill Training Ride style video, but as soon as I let Colin loose it turned into a Gravel Gods episode. Strickland is one of the best American riders around right now, this guy can do it all. I wasn't on a great day which is really what you need when trying to stay anywhere near this guy's back wheel. It hurt like hell but I had a blast showing an old pal some of my secret routes and a few new trails.
