There is no UCI sanctioned gravel World Championship, but a hearty bunch of riders<\/a> in Lincoln, Nebraska put on an event every year that stands in, a sort of not-all-the-way serious race that gets pretty serious and attracts a lot of fast riders.<\/p>\n One of those fast folks is Kae, for whom we built an Evergreen SL<\/a> with our buddy Bob at Wheel Werks Custom Cycles<\/a> in Crystal Lake, IL. Kae won the Open Women’s category and pulled on the striped jersey.<\/p>\n Here are some photos and a note from Kae:<\/p>\n Kae says:<\/p>\n Bob,<\/em><\/p>\n We were in Lincoln NE to compete in the (unofficial) Gravel Worlds Championship.<\/em><\/p>\n Rode with different packs, battled with high wind alone, crushed (and got crushed by) relentless hills (it’s not flat in NE!). After 9 hours of saddle time, I achieved my goal – the worlds jersey with champion stripes!!\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n For overall (men\/women all categories included) 19th out of 300+.<\/em><\/p>\n My Seven really made a difference. Thank you SO much for your expert assembly and attention to details. No mechanical whatsoever, I am so comfortable on the bike, up, down or flat or HARD riding.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n It’s done quite a few unpaved rides\/races this year so far (KS, NE, UP Michigan, WV, PA) and more are to come. I have lots of stories to tell you …. including a HUGE moose encounter.<\/em><\/p>\n Hope to see you soon! \u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n Kae<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" There is no UCI sanctioned gravel World Championship, but a hearty bunch of riders in Lincoln, Nebraska put on an event every year that stands in, a sort of not-all-the-way serious race that gets pretty serious and attracts a lot of fast riders.
