go to my blog:
Deathlap (http://deathlap.blogspot.com)
look at the rightside columns - check out the rider blogs as they all link to some other sites than the ones I have listed. Check out the comments on BenLikesBikes as there are some good blogs attached to user sigs.
Also - get a subscription to Cyclocross Magazine (http://www.cxmagazine.com/)
The first issue was great! Can't wait for the next.

www.cylingnews.com
www.plusonelap.com
www.cyclocrossworld.com
and of course...
http://www.bikerackcyclocross.com/index.html
www.benlikesbikes.com
and i occasionally check pitboss' blog.
And from those I get to more and more blogs.
Also, as Jason pointed out, the bike rack cross site. John and I have been hoping to plan some off season rides. And anybody is welcome to come.

you can pull your own horn, just don't blow it.
yeah - ben's list is pretty much what I supplement mine with. Someday, I will work more during work hours...
It's not about which sites you visit, but how much time you spend looking at bike sites (CX-related, of course). At the ol' Jpearl homestead, it's not uncommon for Mrs. Jpearl to reprimand Mr. Jpearl for not just using the computer too much, but rather "are you still looking at bikes"
And let's not forget at work, where I'm usually asked "why are you looking at men in tights?". BTW, one day when budget permits, I would love to be able to post a bike on PlusOneLap.com.

I find the site linked below to be really great. A lot of bike stuff in general, plus a bit of cross in there at times.

plusonelap has gotten lazy and the weight weenitude on it is vomitous.
BKW has great posts, but not frequent enough for daily checks.
e-Richie's blog is great.
Until the Snow Ends is pretty good.
Olaf Vanderhoot's blog is entertaining.
How to Avoid the Bummer Life pwns.
Bobke Strut, again, great material but not updated frequently enough.

North Americans in Europe sometimes make interesting observations.

Katie Compton's husband/wrench posts some cool Euro-stories to cyclocrossworld.com
Belgian Kneewarmers is great. Good to know that somebody out there appreciates the gritty hardman look of a tough Belgian on a raw spring day instead of the warm midsummer cleanliness of yet another Lance-wannabee.
