Searching on here doesnt ever show the results I want. I have to google to find the right thing im looking for on this site. I search for something and the results arent even close to what im looking for. I would have to go through like a 100 results before I find the one I want. I search cyclocross and most of the results have nothing to do with cyclocross.

Search finds the occurrence of the word "cyclocross" in posts. It does that just as well as Google. What it does not do is track references to the post (which Google does), or context (which only the human brain does).

Perhaps you should try restricting the forum range to only the Cyclocross forum (or whatever).
