Gravel & Coffee, Strade Bianche Hangover Ride
2 August 2020 @ 09:00 - 17:00
€30
August 1st the big races return. Strade Bianche one of the most beautiful from spring. Café driver celebrates this with a Lumberjack meets Strade Bianche. We will provide the hangover ride for this big party on August 2. Think a nice breakfast, even more delicious clay and an interesting podcast conversation for dessert.
The terrace and bar are large enough to create the necessary bubbles. And whoever wants to, will be allowed to ride the 55 km long track alone. (only on GPS)
The Podcast recordings will start about an hour after the group arrival. and I welcome someone from Café Coureur and Jaegher Bikes to my table. The subjects will be Gravelen in Limburg, and the world. I will also chat with Emanuel about how a good gravel bike should be built and how they can put this custum together for you.
The course should not be too technical, and along the road we stop just after the second supply zone to see the Tour of Flanders. Our adventure will entirely be devoted on being outside together.
We gather around the breakfast table starting 9 am and will ride on at 10 am.
For those who prefer not to have the breakfast, Coffee before + coffee and brownie afterwards is also possible for € 20. You can also ride alone, the GPX will be in your mail on Friday. If you go for the solo ride you will get the Ferm Kombucha at the start.

* A Ferm Kombucha halfway

Gravel & Coffee is a series of social gravel rides organized by Der Lokomotiv Adventures.
We have carefully chosen the roads so that we can have the best possible group experience. The ride should not be too technical but some more challenging sections can spice the ride. Our adventures will entirely be devoted on being outside together.
Mountain Bikers and the more experienced Roadies are welcome, but the track is made with Gravel Bikes in mind. So if you accompany us, be mentally prepared for a route that is not always the most suitable for your bike.
The gravel rides are unsupported, what means there will never be a car nearby or feeding stations on the way. We will have to solve our mechanical problems ourselves. So you will have to bring and carry your own stuff, but it is still a social event, so We will help each other out. We will leave no one behind.

Our adventure is a social story, both to members of the group and to outsiders. Respect the highway code and be courteous to other road users. Gravel paths are excellent and often busy hiking trails, where people with children and pets experience their own adventures. A group of cyclists can quickly come across as a threat, so we kindly ask you to pass serene and say Hi. This way we can ensure that these types of journeys can continue to exist.
