    Gravel Bike Event Tunnel Hill Evening Rides

    I'm thinking about starting a weekly evening ride at Tunnel Hill State Trail. For now, we'd definitely be riding in the dark. Would any of you be interested in this? If so, what days?

    Dirty South Roubaix 2026

    I heard in some cases. But in the parts where it was blowing you back was a bit tiring. I can't really blame the winds too much though because I didn't train for it and that's my fault lol

    13's new trail

    I don't blame you! I live in Metropolis now. I used to live in Hurst. They'd get this trail made when I moved away from it of course lol

    Coldest you've ridden in

    I think I rode in 28 degrees once. It was road biking around Lake Murphysboro. So, as you know, the hills warmed me up quick. How about you all? What's the coldest you've ridden outside on a bike?
