I spent about 4 years (1968-72) in Stillwater, and the winds then seemed ferocious. I remember having to walk doubled over to make headway against a strong wind and was even knocked down once, rounding a corner. But gusts of 70 mph! Seems impossible, yet here it is.

Beautifully captivating writing ❤️💔

Super curious to hear your ideas on shifting these events to include more accountability for the open spaces we play in and would love to be part of the discussion if you want/need more voices!

Really great writing, Abi. Such a powerful reflection of a weekend many of us will never forget.

Happy to help brainstorm ideas to pitch to events so we can continue to share incredible spaces with the gravel community (and beyond) while simultaneously protecting the land.
