Looks great to me. We ride gravel roads all the time where we live- it's all just part of the fun for us!

I grew up on a gravel road. The advantages were that the cars went more slowly than they do now (it's been paved). The disadvantage was that we had to rinse the dust off the house a couple of times a year.
I like gravel roads and I like riding on them. If you have the funds, you could use your newly-created gravel roads as an excuse to purchase the Supreme Gravel Road Bike: a Rivendell Saluki with 650B wheels. Now that's riding!
