Gravel Rouser War Room

Volunteers have been hard at work preparing for this year's Gravel Rouser Classic. As of Friday the race plates were laminated, the buttons were stamped and we had a good chunk of the Easter eggs filled with booty. Today some trail maintenance is happening in preparation for Thursday's MTB time trial, and Gravel Rouser chefs are beginning to shop for food for post-event feasts on Friday and Saturday. It's shaping up to be another great 'Rouser!
