In our first episode of Unpaved Podcast we travelled to the beautiful New Forest on the South Coast to join The Woods Cyclery's Sunday shop ride. With co-owner Tom Farrell and co-owner of Brother Cycles, Will Meyer, we discussed exactly where this gravel boom has come from and more about their routes into the discipline, from BMX to Tour Divide.
