Tiffany Cromwell (Canyon-SRAM) has reignited her gravel racing plans following her surprise debut at the Tokyo Olympic Games in July. The Australian, who put her original gravel schedule on hold until after the Games, will begin racing off-road at the 2021 SBT GRVL on Sunday.

"I’m relaxed and excited. It’s been a long build-up and a lot of extra logistics with the various travel restrictions. A big thanks to my management team, Canyon-SRAM and our team’s partners for helping make it all happen," said Cromwell ahead of the race held in Steamboat, Colorado.
