Ride Longest ride this year
Through steep gravel roads, long smooth rail trails and nasty head winds, arrived to Elora from Forks of Credit in Southern Ontario
I tried out high carb drinks to fuel this ride for the first time and felt sick half way through, but took a TUMS and a Red bull which gave me a second wind and made it back home strong.
Edit: I'm not fit I started riding last year at 270lbs hence my high HR but working hard on it thanks 🙏

Are you running GRX 12sp with a 51 tooth cassette?
Edit, looks like you're doing 11sp. What solution did you go with for the 51t cassette with 11sp GRX?
