• Gravel Inspiration - Peak Gravel Overnighter (https://www.gravelunion.cc/article/gr...)
• In the world of bikepacking, there’s a fine line between “epic adventure” and “complete chaos”. The Peak Gravel Overnighter 2025 somehow delivered both - and that’s precisely what made it such a hit. Event organiser Valerio Stuart (  / vale.stuart  ) reveals how the inaugural edition came together and why it left everyone wanting more.
• Gravel Inspiration – GTRB Wild Weekender (https://www.gravelunion.cc/article/gr...)
• Gravel event organisers have to put in an incredible amount of work when organising an event, including giving regular offerings to the weather gods to get their event blessed with sunshine. Unfortunately, despite their best efforts, after months of hot, dry weather, the heavens opened for the inaugural Girls That Ride Bikes Wild Weekender (https://girlsthatridebikes.com/gtrb-w...) which was held at the end of August. Fortunately, the weather didn’t dampen the spirits of the participants. 
• Gravel Inspiration - Five things I learned as a guide at a women’s-only gravel camp (https://www.gravelunion.cc/article/fi...)
• It’s no secret that there’s a profound impact that comes through doing any sort of outdoor sport – especially when you do it as part of a community. Fresh from guiding a women’s gravel camp in central Italy, Shimano Gravel Alliance rider Claudia Gerosa (  / gliod  ) looks back on how riding in an all-women’s environment can be so inspiring.
