Small, stealthy, clever hacks – Alison Jackson's Cannondale SuperX Lab71 from Gravel Burn

Alison Jackson's Cannondale SuperX Lab71 for Gravel Burn.

Alison Jackson has a soft spot for Africa. The Canadian never left the continent after the UCI World Championships in Kigali, Rwanda, and travelled to South Africa via Ethiopia to commence her off-season training and preparations for Gravel Burn. The EF Education-Oatly rider came into the race as one of the big names but was quick to point out at the pre-event pro rider press conference that she was at the race to have a lot of fun.
