Hey All,
I'm looking to do my first cx race this fall and was wondering two things
I have a specialized tricross sport (with disc brakes and eggbeaters) and wanted to know if people thought that would be good enough to get me through a race. I'm using the stock (32mm) tires on it now too.
What's the best way to train in the absence of a real course and in dry summer weather? I currently ride a lot of fire roads and some single track on weekends and commute 25 miles on weekdays but nothing too cyclocross-ish.
I was super happy to find these forums - they look like an incredible resource. Thanks!
