12 Days of DIYgravel IS A WRAP!

Howdy friends, happy Friday, and happy new year!

Bravo to everyone who hopped aboard the 12 Days of DIYgravel train to bid 2020 goodbye. The holidays are busy as is, so hopefully you enjoyed the inanity of those 12 tasks. Based on the photos (see below), your ride titles, and the sheer number of rides submitted, I’d say you’re having more than just a good time.
