We talk gravel... and bikes!
Since our early days in cycling, we’ve always tried to explore every facet of the sport. Gravel has opened up incredible horizons for us: travelling differently, getting off the beaten track, and rediscovering the simple pleasure of pedalling far from traffic. More recently, we chose to broaden the scope again by returning to the road, too, to share a complete view of cycling – performance as well as adventure.
Through Gravelpassion.com, our aim is the same as ever: to give you practical, actionable guidance to get more from your riding, whether that’s choosing the right kit, finding hands-on advice, or simply fuelling your passion.
Thank you ♥️

A few years in already!
2021
Officially launched in July 2021, those first few months allowed Gravel Passion to realise that there was a genuine need in the market. There was clearly no go-to reference media outlet for gravel.
2022
This year has been packed with new features: the launch of a comparison tool, an expanded events calendar, and more and more guides. Gravel Passion is starting to establish itself as a go-to reference in the gravel world.
2023
This is the year of confirmation. Gravel Passion is becoming a real business and is starting to take shape, with the arrival of a few contributors and partners who are helping the media grow.
2024
Despite a cycling market in serious difficulty, Gravel Passion continues to stand out by diversifying and always listening closely to its ever-growing community: more than one million readers and 10K newsletter subscribers.
2025
Despite the ongoing challenges across the industry, Graval Passion is proving its resilience by continuing to diversify and now opening up to more disciplines, such as road cycling. “From dust to tarmac” is becoming the new tagline of this 360° media outlet.
2026
We’re there 🙂
After building one of France’s leading specialist media outlets for gravel and road cycling, we’re launching our international English-language edition. This first launch will be followed, in the coming weeks, by Spanish, Italian and German editions.
