A gentle introduction to the joy of gravel grinders with a few stops to relax, rejuvenate and rest at.
The ride starts and finishes at 10am in Oxford and we will travel to the Waimakariri River and back.
This is a great introduction to gravel riding, it is a rolling 52ks, one proper climb with a bunch of gravel sections, a bit of highway and a number of quiet rural roads.
