Cyclocross Time

Oh yes, it is also THAT time of year.

Mud and cowbells. Beer chucking hecklers. A start followed by varying degrees of extreme pain until you cross the finish. At least that is what you are hoping for.

I put off getting into this sport for years as I just couldn't see the appeal.

Then I tried it and immediately was hooked.

If you aren't familiar with it, do some Googling. Check out some videos. It is more fun than it looks. These guys are hard men. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HIZfGcBcfH4

And on a local note: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=skKMZXxOiT8

Oh yeah, it can be the best of times, the worst of times.

  2. Thanks!

    The tentative schedule is showing the Fort Worth events to be falling on the 7th and 8th of November. This sounds to be fairly certain, at this time anyhow.

    I have heard the previous FtW events were very good and look forward to seeing what is offered this year.
