Gravel Bike/MTB Tradesies

Catherine rode my Thesis OB1 and I rode her Specialized Epic so she could see what a gravel bike with a dropper is like and I could see what a full suspension XC bike is like. Answer - SUPER FUN!

She took me on new, more technical trails that I normally avoid, and crushed it on my gravel bike. I was so impressed. It was obviously so much easier on the MTB and most of it was effortless.

Catherine did tell me to yeet the John Brooks downhill and I nearly yeeted myself to death when I came flying around to see that enormous rut that I was parallel to. I pump jumped over it to save my life but was headed off the road. I managed to save it and my life.
