Gravel season is here. One of the first big races of the year is taking place this weekend in Arizona, which has historically attracted a fast and furious field of racers ready to test their legs against the spring competition.
Now in its third edition, both previous editions were one by Keegan Swenson and Sofia Gomez Villafane. Who will be victorious this year? Ryan and Logan Jones-Wilkins make their predictions in this episode of the podcast in addition to previewing the course.
If you missed my previous episode with Logan, we dived into his background and his dual roles as a pro cyclist as well as a freelance journalist.
