Love the Gravel Ride
Craig and Randell are doing a super job with the podcast. It is entertaining and I learn so much with the diverse guests and topics. As a mechanical engineer I love when Randell goes full bike nerd on tech, bike design and in depth discussions on components. I’m always eagerly waiting for the next episode.

Grow a pair
I understand you live in Marin, a progressive bastion, which has groomed you to be cloyingly sensitive. But please grow a pair when offering your opinion. You ALWAYS qualify it with “but if you don’t agree with my completely uncontroversial opinion I’m here to slavishly validate yours and it’s gonna take the next five minutes to do it.” Just say “I think a bunch of purple anodized components isn’t cool anymore and the quality wasn’t great to begin with.” Then move on!

Fun and informative for beginners
I tried a lot of bike podcasts when I fell beck in love with cycling in 2020 but this is one of the few that I loved and have returned to again and again. Nice mix of athletes, events, gear and general information for someone starting out or taking that next step in gravel cycling.

Great listen
After listening to the Doug Roeder show, my new goal is to be a guest. Although I've only made it through the first half so far - I can't believe I didn't get a shout out yet.

Great gravel gravy!
As an industry insider ( sounds grandiose, sorry ) who lives and breathes cycling everyday I still come away with nuggets of knowledge every time I listen

Please stop using the word “journey” so much.
Otherwise, 5 stars.

Love this cycling podcast. Talkin Giants va the World. This is the best wilderness podcast. Way better than Giant Insider

Whether or not you ride gravel, if you like bikes, you’ll enjoy this podcast. Give it a listen and then check out The Ridership. You’ll be glad you did.

Much needed. Solid all around
Open minded and welcoming just like how the gravel community should be. Fantastic info and intriguing guests. Worth a listen and definitely worth a subscribe!!!

Great community
Have been listening to this podcast for about 8 months and absolutely love it. Craig and Randall are extremely easy to listen to for hours. They are very informed on the products they talk about but don’t come across as “better than you” in their delivery which is so important. It’s my favorite podcast and Craig is doing some incredible things for the gravel community. Cheers✌🏼
Cal is the best

THE Gravel Ride
I look forward to every episode and find Craig (and Randall) to be entertaining, informative AND inspiring. Their perspective and format is valuable and has me looking at some upgrades (dropper post!?) I would have never considered in the past.

a cycling podcast that I can understand
I'm fairly new to cycling. I mean I rode a bike as a kid, but haven't really gotten into cycling until March 2020 due to Covid. Through the past months, I've dialed my latest hobby into gravel cycling specifically, and this podcast is a great companion. They aren't talking in terms that are hard to understand, and keep it light. Just a nice listen when you're getting ready to jump on your bike.

All Gravel!
If you are looking for everything gravel this is a excellent informative podcast. Very knowledgeable information from 2 guys with a wealth of experience.

Salsa
I’ve listened to every episode really big fan of salsa bikes and like how he covers huge brands and big but not gigantic brands. Think we could hear something on the salsa journeyman?

High Quality Cast
This cast does a great job with the topic of gravel riding. Episodes are concise and not too long. Wide variety of content. The bumper music will amp-up your ride if you are listening while on the trainer!

For New Cyclists Too!
I'm a very new cyclist (Pandemic Rider new) and all I have around my house are miles of gravel. I have zero road cycling experience and no mountain bike experience. You wouldn't think I'm athletically fit by looking at me either. Middle-age and overweight but losing inches. In fact, before listening to my first episode I didn't even give myself permission to call myself a cyclist despite putting in gravel miles. I've learned so much from this podcast. It motivates and inspires without being overwhelming and intimidating for a beginner but also without being so basic.

Excellent, informative, enjoyable Podcast
This podcast sets a high bar for focus, content, guest engagement, and blending of product details without any selling! Host is Superb. Craig’s experience and knowledge as a rider paired with his enthusiasm makes this a top choice on my podcast list.

Great Host + Great Guests = Great Podcast
Craig is a terrific interviewer; he’s engaged and fluid, sees the big picture yet cares about details, and — I hope this doesn’t sound weird — doesn’t have a big ego. The guests bring a variety of perspectives: frame- and wheel-builders, race organizers, racers, etc. It’s a must-listen if you ride gravel.

Best cycling podcast
Extremely insightful and diverse podcast. Episodes include thoughtful discussions and information relevant to anyone in the gravel/all road scene. Some I have listened to multiple times and compare to my experiences on the gravel bike. Keep it up!!!

Love this podcast!!!
I love this podcast and look forward to each episode. Craig does a fantastic job interviewing the guest. The best part of the podcast is it is short and informative. 30-45 minutes is ideal for me to listen in my car. And I have no problem with Craig mentioning the sponsor(s) on the podcast. Keep up the great work Craig. 😊

Awesome Podcast
Craig makes the world of gravel bikes approachable and open to all. Every podcast gets me more excited about riding bikes on the dirt. Found out about the Grasshopper, and rode Low Gap😳🤘, through the Gravel Ride. Great stuff!

Love this podcast
This is the best cycling podcast from any discipline that I've listened to. I love the adventure that's part of gravel, and Craig does a great job of sharing his enthusiam for the support and bringing that out in his guests.

Enjoy
Balanced. Intelligent. Interesting. Informative.
captain krankypants
Well rounded
Craig does a great job of getting well-rounded subject matter. Not over the top geeky on tech, just good conversations and content. Keep up the good work!

Trainer Talk
Have really enjoyed listening to the podcast while spending hours on the trainer. Makes the time go by quickly and can be very informative.
GregC-DK200
Perfect for me.
Has the right amount of professionalism, audio quality and content I’m looking for. Some tech, some race, some adventure, and some deeper looks at the sport/hobby/obsession from some really great people. I miss the tech tips at the beginning from the sponsor, those were great. Concise and informative. Keep up the great work!

Great Podcast thank you for the content. Would love to hear an episode on Vermont gravel rides and events.

Finally! Best gravel Podcast out there.
The first dedicated gravel cycling podcast I've found. Great content, I expect Craig to pump out lots more good interviews and gear reviews! Thanks! I listen to all the podcasts around adventure cycling and this is by far the best.

Impressive Guest lineup & Tech Talk
Been listening for about 4 months and am addicted to the guests discussing tech, industry and the passion for adventure! Thanks for putting these episodes together!
RedRiderAG
Great podcast
I’m very impressed with what a good interviewer the host is. If you really asks great questions and touches on the types of things that we gravel cyclists want to hear about. Very few podcasts are as professional and well done as this one.
Happinessonabike
3.5 maybe 4
good show, yet kind of annoying to listen to... the host likes to have a back-and-forth conversation with the guest, which involves discussing backstory. the problem is that the host goes into his personal history with each guest, as if it's his first time his story. meaning we get to hear the same spiel every! single! episode! OMG!!! hostguy: can we make it less about you, please?!
ragamuffin rider
Awesome content!
Great guests, perfect length shows
Frankie9060
Excellent content and info!
This is a great, low key, informative podcast for gravel riders. Craig has developed a podcast that is solid in content and easy to listen to. He is a smart host who does not “get in the way” of the guest or info.

This podcast guides you through the Gravel Scene
Kudos to Craig for all the awesome content! He covers all the major events and gets into conversation with people pushing the limits of this sport. Thank you!

Don’t miss this podcast!
Great podcast. It’s to Gravel what the UltraTrail Runner podcast was to trail running. Keep up the good work.

Engaging, thoughtful and great for gravel nerds. Keeps my attention every episode!

Ear candy for cycling enthusiasts!
This podcast is a great listen if you’re a Gravel cycling or general cycling enthusiast. Craig gives very descriptive overview of his own experiences and in-depth interviews with others that are involved in the Gravel cycling industry. A lot of the casts are centered around riding in Cali. We’ve made it as far east as the Dirty Kanza. It would be great to get some east coast events on the program and spread the love. Keep up the great work! Ride on.

Great Podcast!
I’ve been waiting for someone to dedicate a podcast to this style of riding. I enjoy the stories and it is a great way to expand on the bucket list of gravel events I want to attend.

Awesome topic - great podcast!
I have been waiting for someone to cover gravel riding for so long! I can relate to this podcast because I too recently got into gravel riding and share his history of road and mountain biking. This guy’s channel is going to do great and I look forward to many more episodes!
