I know what it's like to duke it out with skinny little kids in a cross race. We have a local club for juniors that has produced several Nats. Champs in the last few years. The club is called B.Y.R.D.S (Boise Young Rider Development Squad). It is a right of passage to get "Birded" in any level of cross race. Damn kids are fast, and some are good enough to hang with the top P/1/2's.
Your team format sounds fun, in a painful kind of way. Good luck tomorrow.
Did my first cross race of the season today. Not much to report, but I'll post something tomorrow.
