Hank went to Tuscany to take on his first ever gravel race: Grinduro. A mix of gravel and enduro, it’s an event like no other. The 103km route heads through the beautiful Tuscan countryside and takes on four timed stages. Hank’s bike is equipped with the super lightweight Campagnolo Ekar groupset and carbon Levante wheels. How did he get on?

  1. How can you be racing and still get some of the most cinematic shots I've seen in cycling videos? I'm guessing advance crews setting up 360 degree cameras at likely dramatic points. Whatever it was, the GCN team did some great work on this one.

  2. Well done, Hankster Monster! The single track riding scenes were so thrilling but the most meaningful takeaway was that small reminder about taking care of friends because races just come and go. Another great video. Big up, GCN and Grinduro 2023! 😊

  3. I Absolutely Love Hanks Bike and would love to own something Similar and I also Really like the stealthy Look if I could only find out how to put together a Bike like this and Building it myself would be even Better. . Whats the point of spending Thousands of Pounds on a Bike to only nave it Nicked or constantly worrying that Your Bike is going to be still there when You get back .I would love it if GCN could do a Video on this showing how to put together a top Grade Light Weight Gravel Bike with the best Component's available for say less than £4000 that everyone thinks only costs a few Hundred Pounds but that only You Knows the True costs.That would be Amazing .

  4. Last race I was Woah, then woah, and then WOOOAH. This race I was greeted by “LEEEROY JEENKINS!” A classic move, that ends as one might suspect. But then the unexpected happened! Always entertaining, with DoomGuy as he does things only DoomGuy can do! Look forward to what looks to be new DoomGuy tech added.
