i read it sometime over the last month or so. cycling tips or cycling weekly or some of those. some guy whining about gravel; how it needs to be this or isn't that or something.
The whole Gravel scene is growing and evolving quickly - in some cases explosively! The pandemic, put things on hold for 2 years from a race/event perspective, but the demand/interest just kept growing and growing. Then races/events came back - particularly in the U.S. and kaboom!
In some respects having been there myself, it reminds me a lot of the early days of triathlon - a bit renegade, a bit wild west - then people wanted to come in with rules, and some discipline, standardizations, and some of the "originals" got their backs all up!
