There's a small quirky town named Patagonia, Arizona that has been gaining attention in the gravel bike community. That's where we started a week-long shoot with Shimano. We teamed up with the talented film crew Anthill Films where our goal was to capture Shimano's new gravel components the GRX Di2. Shimano is renowned for their innovation in cycling technology, has once again pushed the boundaries with this latest offering, catering specifically to the burgeoning gravel riding community. The GRX Di2 seamlessly integrates electronic shifting technology with the demands of gravel riding.
Our journey through Patagonia was nothing short of epic, but it was not without its challenges. Battling unpredictable weather patterns, we found ourselves contending with heat one moment and torrential downpours the next. One particularly memorable morning saw us racing against time as we nearly ran out of gas en route to a location. Despite all the obstacles, we persevered. If everything went right it wouldn't be memorable after all.

I photographed a lot, which definitely happens within a week of shooting. Here are some screen-grab images that they are slowly rolling out on Shimano's site.
