If you've spotted your smiling face... your determined race face... or your "I definitely wasn't struggling up that climb" face ... and you'd like the original high-resolution image, just drop us a message!

We're always happy to send the original over so you can relive the moment, frame it, post it, or simply prove to your mates that you did make it to the finish line.
Send us a direct message with a screenshot or a description of the photo, and we'll do the rest.
Happy riding, and keep those smiles (and muddy tyres) coming!

Podiums don't grow on trees... they grow on GRAVEL!
Some people chase trophies... our riders chase gravel, mud, questionable weather, and the occasional "this seemed like a good idea at the time" moment.
Every finish line crossed, every climb conquered, and every podium earned is a reminder that the best stories usually start with, "Remember that ride...?"
Here's to pushing pedals, pounding the feet, making memories, and proving that a little gravel never hurt anyone (well... mostly! 😅).
Who's ready for the next adventure?

SCOTT Gravel Rocks 2026, done, dusted and DELIVERED!

Talking of dust, it's finally settled after an epic weekend of all things gravel riding and running around the stunning Duncombe Park Estate in the North York Moors.

The event saw trail running debut over Friday and Saturday with both social and timed race segments - replicating the now popular format used for our gravel riders, both including the iconic Gravel Rocks in the Dark stage on Friday night!

We've captured some of the essence of the event in the image gallery shared here - blending racing and community to the backdrop of a mini festival vibe for all the family.

How cool is this? Gravel Rocks is historically a cycling event however this year, for the first time, they introduced trail running events too! I mean, runners make everything better right?!

The festival got underway on Friday night with a sunset run which means that this clip celebrates the FIRST EVER Gravel Rocks runners!

The route was class too, a woodland loop around the grounds of Duncombe Park with a beast of a hill to finish!

I’ll tell you more about the format of the weekend in my full YouTube video tomorrow!

Oh yeah, and don’t worry… me and the spaniel are good mates. I wasn’t really telling him off!
