The Gravel Muster is a once in a lifetime mission into a remote corner of the earth with an entire cohort of like minded riders.
It’s something you’ll likely never do alone, but at the same time, something you’ll think back on for the rest of your life.
𝐑𝐄𝐀𝐒𝐎𝐍 #𝟐: 𝐓𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐫𝐚𝐜𝐞 𝐢𝐬 𝐜𝐚𝐩𝐩𝐞𝐝 𝐚𝐭 𝟏𝟎𝟎 𝐫𝐢𝐝𝐞𝐫𝐬...
Due to accommodation limits, we need to keep this small and intimate.
Think Cape Epic or Migration Gravel Race – it's small enough to make it feel like you're riding with mates, but big enough to be buzzing with a festival-like vibe.
We have no idea when this will sell out, but it's first in, best dressed.
𝐑𝐄𝐀𝐒𝐎𝐍 #𝟑: 𝐖𝐡𝐲 𝐧𝐨𝐭?!
Have you ever undertaken a wild, outdoor challenge like this and regretted it??
Enough said 😜
