We might like to imagine cutting through gravel corners speedway style on our new Adventure mount, but the reality is that gravel roads are no specially prepared circuit, and besides there are sure to be other vehicles coming in the opposite direction. As we have already discussed four wheeled traffic scrubs the gravel road into wheel tracks and berms. The wheel tracks are relatively free of stones and more or less clear to ride and the loose berms, mounds of gravel that we only cross as we have to. Simple enough if all gravel roads were straight and level, but they aren’t, more to the point they are usually extremely windy and cambered, so it’s the corners that pose the challenge. How then do we thread a 200kg Adventure bike through a series of gravel corners?
