How I Got My BEST EVER Gravel Race FINISH! (Rock Cobbler 2024)

In this gravel cycling video, I walked through my experience and my race at the 11th edition of the rock cobbler in Bakersfield, California. This turned out to be my best ever finish at a proper gravel race, which is strange, because I went into it with zero expectations and just wanted to tell a good story of the course. The rock cobbler is one of the most dynamic courses on the gravel cycling circuit. With steep and technical downhill, pitch steep, pitches to climb, and wild cattle to gallop with. I raced the boulder route, which is the newest and longest version of the rock cobbler. Only 50 spots were available, so it wasn’t a super stacked field, although there were racers like Peter Stettner and Tobin, who are certified hitters in the gravel cycling race scene STRAVA : SUPPORT: 0:00 Intro 1:19 Course 3:14 Moving Up 8:15 Stick to the plan 11:13 Cliffs & Cows 16:30 New Body
