Gruset's friends run Trosatur.

INZAIN 200/100/50 Mile Gravel Grinder

The forecast for Sunday has looked good all week, it was actually even better the closer we got to the weekend. 15 degrees, just enough wind, perfect! I decided on the Swedish premiere in short brallan, it was perfect!

The tour we decided on had its base in one of the cruel routes on https://teamutangranser.se/gravelrutter/, the one we chose was uploaded by Patric Oscarsson, who also assisted with advice and deed for our modified version, thank you very much, that's how our gravel community works, kudos!

We gathered in Trosa and soon roll out on canon roads, almost no cars and alternating with classic dirt road, path and occasional more technical sections.
Everyone is alert and it's going pretty fast down to Nynäs Castle, they haven't opened for guests yet so we moved today's coffee to Bergs, more about that later.

Shortly after Nynäs comes a great stretch of road and a fantastic port, happy friends, nice weather and fantastic roads, what could be better?


We also had one or two challenges, the road over the field above, with logs and everything gave us one more mile of gravel, but it was worth it.

Shortly after this Hike-a-Bike it was coffee, we had chosen Berg's Farm, and we did it right. The dishes were good, as were the pastries. Feel free to try.

The track passage above was also a way to get less asphalt and we have Patric to thank for this too, because local knowledge can't be beat.

The last three miles home were a bit tough, we are not all used to longer distances than that, but as usual everyone took care of each other and we came back to Trosa, happy, satisfied and with new memories in the bank.

Thanks to everyone who participated.
