"Its very easy to go into these things feeling like an Imposter, but I have to stress this point, that Ultra racing is very much for anyone!" Good friend of G!RO, Tom Duncan is fresh back from completing Badlands Gravel Race in Spain... a multi day, solo, unsupported Gravel Race through the highlands of Granada, Spain... which was his first ever Ultra Race!  Having recently picked up his @CURVECYCLING Titanium Kevin, Tom had set about getting the bike and himself ready for his first gravel Ultra. In this podcast we delve into what it takes to prepare and execute the race... all whilst managing a high pressure, Full Time job, as well as being a loving Husband and Father. A true 'Average Hero' story Tom shares his learnings from the race and all that led up to it. A great listen, that will hopefully inspire you to step into the world of Ultra.  So sit back, grab a brew & enjoy!
