As promised in my “Riding Gravel Bikes in Northern California: Downieville” video, this video is all raw footage of the big descent from Day 2 of my media gravel camp experience with Echos Communications and Roval Components.
There is no music during the 40+ minutes of pure gravel descending in this video. Feel free to turn the volume down and play your own music, optionally whilst you ride your trainer. As I run my GoPro Hero 7 cameras inside a protective case, they do rattle around inside, particularly on gravelly roads.
Descending is a risky proposition at the best of times, always ride within your limit.
If this video is well received, I will produce more videos for those riders needing a distraction from riding on their indoor trainer. I have 10+ years of gravel cycling footage that I could easily incorporate into such future videos… i.e. uncut 2016 Dirty Kanza, uncut 2017 Crusher in the Tushar, uncut ride videos from Australia, Italy and so on!
