Great photo, @coelacanth! Is this Marin Headlands or somewhere a little further down the coast?

You guessed right 🙂

I'm mostly a skinny tire road bike commuter, but photos like this give me bike GAS. 😅

What bike are you graveling with there, @coelacanth ?

A few from my test roll in an Olympus Pen S. Fomapan 200 that I mistakenly exposed at 400.

It's Trek Checkpoint ALR 5, which is their touring/adventure oriented gravel bike. I ride trails regularly, and I've done a few bikepacking as well. My last few bikes were semi-vintage/vintage racing geometry road bikes, and I am amazed by all the modern tech (tho the GRX600/800 mix is a mid-tier offering), stopping power of disc brakes and the whole gravel bike category.

dourbalistar,
I wish I could have multiple bikes, but those days are behind me unfortunately. I still have 2 motorcycles so there is that...
For my use (daily exercise, weekend outing, bikepacking, gravel riding for fun, etc), I find the Gravel Bike to be the perfect do-all category of bikes for me.

Yes, if I had to have just one bike it absolutely would be a gravel bike with an extra set of wheels for road. 😀
