GXX

Dirt Connections. People Connections. 

Chances are if you’ve called Spinergy for customer service then you may have spoken to Jeff Paulson. And that phone call may have started on a Spinergy bike wheel inquiry then likely gravitated to a chat about a new trail or a super-secret gravel connection found in the byways and backyards of North or East County San Diego.

Kathy is a former downhill world champion and a mountain biker. She has recently taken up gravel riding and completed her first successful race this past weekend in Cody, Wyoming taking home 1^st place in Women’s for “The Ugly”, a 100-mile course in the Fistful of Dirt gravel race. She talked to us about her trepidatious start with gravel to her recent success achieved on a set of Spinergy GXX wheels that we sent her.

How did you first get into gravel racing?
