Strada Fango

Last spring I was fortunate enough to attend the inaugural Strada Fango 100k gravel grinder up Bloomer way. Derek and I showed up on a tandem and our ability to finish the grueling course was immediately called into question. We finished, we suffered, we had fun.  It was an amazing gravel/sand sufferfest and I can't wait to do it again this year.  Apparently the fine folks at Ellis were also party to the event and built a very cool monstercross bike with the Strada's namesake.  


The fork on this thing is one of the best looking front ends I've seen in a long time. Absolutely love it and the fact that it was inspired by a local event and is being shown at NAHBS warms my heart a bit. Check out more info at Ellis Cycles.
