This week on the show, Craig rolls solo for a special 2025 Gravel Ride Holiday Gift Guide — a curated list of the gear, tools, apparel, and wellness upgrades that have genuinely made a difference in his riding this year.

From multi-tools that saved a ride on Mt. Tam, to suspension stems that smooth out rough descents, to merino layers that work year-round, and even at-home blood testing that helps older athletes stay healthy — this list is built from real-world use, real stories, and real benefit.

Whether you're buying for a cyclist in your life, or you are the cyclist in your life, this guide captures a range of thoughtful gifts across all budgets.

Products featured:

  • Wolf Tooth — 8-Bit Pack Pliers, Color Shop accents

  • Redshift Sports — ShockStop Pro Stem, Arclight Pro Clipless Pedals

  • Pinebury — Merino Wool Tee
