257 км по гравию за день | Польская гравийная гонка TFR Gravelowa Korona

257 km on gravel—my first bike marathon. Gravelowa Korona Kujaw i Pomorza—a race held as part of the Toruń Cycling Festival. There were three distances to choose from, and we decided to go all out—we chose the longest one. The route through Kujawsko-Pomorskie: asphalt, gravel, wind, and a long day that didn’t end until nightfall. The video captures the entire ride as it happened: the road, my thoughts, and my feelings along the way.
