I was recently interviewed on the Canadian Cycling Magazine Podcast (Full Send, No Send) about ways we can maximize less optimal training environments.
We discuss ways to use loops and hill repetitions as well as your cyclocross, gravel or mountain bike to slow down and make your rides more steady and also to provide options to ride on grass or dirt path to avoid busy sections.
Check out the whole interview for some great insights from Haley Smith of Norco Factory (hot off her podium at a 2019 MTB World Cup) and my interview, which starts around minute 24
