Left Hand Gravel was a first-year event in Longmont, Colorado that featured 75 miles of pavement and 35 miles of dirt roads. I brought a Trek Madone SL 7 aero road race bike with Bontrager's new Aeolus Pro 47V wheels that use a relatively new type of epoxy-free carbon fiber.

Please note, I screwed up talking about the 'stock' power meter! The bike *does not* come with a meter. I put that on and then completely spaced that when filming. My apologies.
