The budget Unbound tune-up
Gravel Locos is a multi-distance gravel event based in Hico, Texas, on the northern edge of Hill Country. Routes use smooth, fast limestone gravel, open ranch roads, pavement connectors, repeated rollers, occasional chunky patches, and water crossings. Late-May sun and limited shade make heat management, pacing, and hydration central to the day.
For riders seeking a result, 9–13 hours per week build speed that remains usable across fast gravel, short climbs, and repeated rollers. Key sessions combine steady riding with later changes of pace, while longer rides practice drinking before thirst and holding position without wasting effort in the heat.
INSIDE THE COMPETE PLAN — 9–13 HR/WK
Includes zone-tailored structured rides for your devices, built-in strength with video walkthroughs, heat-training protocols for racing in the hot stuff, peloton skills workouts, weekly coach notes + the Gravel Grit mental program, and nutrition and hydration guidance.

When I'm not helping my athletes get faster on a bike I write obvious, overlooked training content that makes cycling training easy to understand.
