This weekend is the first cyclocross race of my season.
The exciting, non-traditional, CX OVER stage race!
A cyclocross stage race you ask?! Why yes.
A point to point tt: on a cross course. a little running, mostly riding. go as fast as you can and don’t crash. Aero bars? no. tt helmet? hmm…
A cyclocross “crit”: a little more asphalt than dirt. ride fast, don’t crash. Sprint tyres, yes. Road tyres? maybe.
And finally a long-course cyclocross race: over an hour of cx. for those who like to suffer. really, this is going to be the perfect icing on the cake for cx prep. a little longer than normal to charge up the batteries before the real efforts begin.
who wants to go down to Eugene with me?
Need a team photographer? I don’t think any of my Hup United teammates are racing, so my team photographer skills are available for hire.
That sounds like a really cool idea. Great training too. It’s got me thinking…
That sounds like a fun race!
