  2. Sticky Thread Sticky: Tips for Newbies

    ...from a newbie (to start with at least). I posted this a week or so ago on the main cyclocross forum, and somebody there suggested a sticky post. I've been dragging my feet, and now it's really late in the season, but here it is anyway. What does it take to get a post made sticky? I had...

  1. Who's killin' it

    I wouldn't say I am killin' it, by any means, but in my first race this year I 78/96 and last week I got 25/76. Steadily moving up. How are your seasons going?

  2. Fix my training oh CX geniuses

    On the flats and descents, I'm okay, but I'm getting dropped like stone on the climbs in races. Current workouts are 1 day 3min VO2max intervals 1:1 rest, 1 day overunder 2x10-15 intervals, 1 day longer, easy ride and 1 day race. So should I just drop the over under stuff and substitute...

  3. Howard County Double Cross

    Signed up for both next week. We'll see if my ancient body can handle races back to back. Any comments on either course? Flat, hilly, techical? Who's going? I'm registered for the Cat 4 for the rest of year.

  4. End of season

    Sorry, not to be a bummer, but reality check time. The season is getting close to the end for most of us. Besides withdrawals, depression, anxiety...what are your plans for the off season? Me: Reintroduce myself to the wife and dog. Get some work done around the house. Spin classes. ...

  5. philly-area racers: who's doing phelps and other area races in the next few weeks?

    does the phelps school race in malvern look to be low key and not well-attended? i see there is a big race not TOO far away in taneytown md on the same weekend if i'm not mistaken. depending on how i feel after phelps, thinking of the marysville race outside of harrisburg. any other smaller...

    Now that I'm building up a ride, I'm itching to race it. I need something relatively close to washington DC; anyone know any sites? How do you know these things?

  7. Did anybody race at the KS-State Championships (11/15)

    I wish I could have made it out there, but had to work all night and I was in no shape to race. The conditions looked downright epic, and that wasn't the easiest venue from what I remember of last week's race and how they laid out the course for yesterday. How was that Death Spiral or whatever...

  8. Primal Reactions

    How do you break yourself of primal/reflex kind of reactions? Specifically, I'm going into a turn fast, I brake hard at the last minute, but something in my brain tells me I still need to be slower and I can't get myself to let go of the brake. Intellectually, I know this is practically the...

  9. NCCX 4 Charlotte, NCCX 5 Salisbury

    #4 Charlotte, Veterans Park. Warm and sunny. Low humidity. Start is a nice holeshot sprint into a steep short hill. You know happens there. First half of course has 2 sand pits back-to-back, a set of double barriers, a run-up (or ride up if you can ride two steps - most ran), and hill that sucks...

    Alright, let's hear your stories! Congrats to Lithuania for posting a top-10 in the B race; awesome job, man! Course was great: technical in spots, fast in spots, deceiving in spots. Course was on the short side (2.5km) and the C race ended up being 6 laps. I heard, but have not confirmed,...

  11. Spring Mountain (PA), Nov. 8th: who's racing?

    i hear there is a detour due to construction, but if you are registered, you probably got that email alert. who's registered or planning to race (or attend)? after a final check/tune-up this morning, i might head to the Fair Hill (MD/DE) race today and watch the elites.

  12. Not sure what to make of my fitness

    Or lack thereof. Cross race #2 today. Lap 1 went ok, 2 and 3 I exploded, 4 I started to feel my legs coming back a little bit, but not enough juice to really make something happen. I don't know where I finished today, but definitely in the back. I'm racing cat 4, 32 years old, and my avg...

    Enough mud for you? I'm pretty sure I could have done just as well carrying the bike for the entire race. Hugely fun. I am so weak.

  17. option is there: change to CAT 4 or stay with the 45+ CAT 2/3/4?

    i did get a response from the organizer of the Spring Mount racing coming up in about 10 days...i was fine with staying in the MASTERS 45+ Cat 2/3/4, but he said i could switch to the earlier Cat 4 race...:o here's what he said: "The masters 2 - 3 - 4 race is generally for B racers-...

  18. Awright!

    8 out of 17! My best finish yet, 1st race of this year, ss CX 4. I'm still a weiner, but I'm a weiner in the middle of the pack instead of the very back. By race 10 or so I'm hoping I'll be able to hang in the front pack. Well, I hope to be hanging on the front maybe by race 5, firmly ensconced...

  19. No tales from All Hallows CX?

    Geez, I miss one weekend and the racing posts plummet. I'm still cranky that I didn't get to race this weekend (although I really thought about it stepping off the redeye from SF, tired and hungover, at 7am on Sat.), so let's hear what you guys did.

  20. How do YOU train for CX?

    Especially if you don't have a local practice group near you. I've been riding/racing road for a while and did my first cross race this weekend, and came in 4th out of 46 riders. I figure I'll cat up, and start focusing my training around CX racing. I'm looking for some things I can do on my cross...
