EXPERIENCE THE ULTIMATE GRAVEL FESTIVAL IN THE NETHERLANDS: GRAVELLER
.
Hi all! I enjoyed 3 days of gravel grinding and 2 nights of camping in the middle of nature. There was good food, music, beers, and a campfire, and I met like-minded bike and nature lovers. Graveller was perfect for gravel grinders, outdoor enthusiasts, folks addicted to campfire smoke, those who live to ride, and those who don’t mind getting lost.

[Music] hi all and today I want to take you for the coolest gravel Festival in the Netherlands graler and we are here for 3 Days uh just talking about bike packing and gravel cycling and it’s really cool Festival because last year one of my friends like highly recommend me that event so that’s why I’m like here and uh I just want to like uh meet new people here I know this like really uh cool Festival that you can just like meet all this like crazy people about like ultra distance cycling bike packing there was also like couple Brands uh here that they like sponsor so it’s really cool to check the equipment from them and we will be do some like gravel cycling uh and uh for tomorrow there’s like three distance and for the next day also three distance so depends of the day how you’re like want to do uh so I’m really excited and yeah let’s start this gravel Festival but first let’s go for a quick beer and uh meet other people uh around uh but I also know that right now who was like early here they actually on a quick uh sunset uh right so yeah let’s start this cool Festival [Music] good morning everyone from graeler day two but I think this is like also official day of like opening entire Festival so right now all the folks they have like breakfast behind me and like just chilling with the coffee and when we just get the breakfast we also like choose the road uh what we want to do because there’s like to distance something around 50 80 and 120 I’m not pretty sure because I didn’t check uh the roads but we’ve decide what we want to do and at least the weather is really nice the night was like really cold but nothing serious so yeah right now we just like getting the coffee have some breakfast and we just want to have a gra fall with all the guys over [Music] there so this is when your Garin is not connecting right you have to do some quick ideas of how to navigate on this restant [Music] so this is only 5K but I can say that this road is really beautiful and I hope it’s safe for uh like entire road we took like 56 km and uh the trail looks really awesome because from one side you just like passing this beautiful forest and then there’s like some standing view of like the fields on my right side so they did really great job with the entire truck and I’m just like Curious what like next kilometers bring to us but for now I’m really happy that I’m here [Music] so right now we did like 20 km from the course and it’s kind of like asphalt R now but I think it’s also a really good solution especially like if you’re like beginner for that type of event so you can take a really short break uh from muddy terrain and we soon should be on the checkpoint feeding point so let’s see what they prepare for us there [Music] right now the road is a little bit difficult because we just like start discovering some muddy sections over here and it’s like the same thing like I had the last uh weekend on a race uh so it’s better to stay on the grass uh but I think on the dry season here it’s really cool Road uh that you can just like pass really fast but for now it’s better to just like really slow to not be covered with mud [Music] this is like also the meeting point for all the like roads from today and there is a lake so you can just like stop here and just go for a quick deep I know like last year people they were like swimming here because it was extremely hot but right now we can do that it’s kind of chitty but uh yeah still good that you have something like that on the on the road [Music] so we just stop on the feeding point and they’re like really well prepared there was also like some punk that was really really cool uh so we have like short break here for like 20 minutes and I think right now it’s like 25 to finish uh kind kind of like chill paste but it was really nice break to just like have a quick coffee they did like really great job for this stop and a lot of people like chilling here and this also like the meeting point for all this like roads for today so we can meet some other Riders from like uh almost like 80 km and 120 uh roads so yeah but we just like keep going because the beer is waiting B [Music] [Music] so we are after our 50ish ride and a lot of riders are like coming back to the campsite that was really nice ride and right now it’s time for shower and uh I think quick nap because there’s like a lot of things going on uh soon uh especially like food points there again start working so the good fot is coming and also there will be like another thing uh like chat I think with commute this time and small workshop with them and last night was like the conversation with irin who’s like the legend here if we talking about like the world uh building in the Netherlands also with a commute so a lot of cool things are coming but for now it’s time for rest [Music] so graler finally is over we just like done our quick ride today morning and the weather is like perfect and I thought that would be like the same road like yesterday but actually there was like some like kind of shortcuts and like different parts of the world was like really cynic especially like with this weather last night we had also a lot of party we met a lot of new people different like stories different uh kind of Adventures around so that was really also cool and I highly recommend to come for this specific gravel Festival in the Netherlands so save your date for 2025 because if you especially like new for this gravel scene it’s a great opportunity to meet new people and learn something more about bike packing and like riding your gravel bike so definitely I will come back next year so that’s it for now so thank you for being here and see you on the next adventure and this is my favorite part of bike packing so we need to just pack all this stuff which probably take a little bit more time that I expect
