writing from seattle
Hello all,
I found this site when I was looking for cyclocross information. I have been riding my surly cross-check for about three years, mainly as a commuter and touring bike. It was just this season that I pulled off the fenders, racks and bottle cages put on 30c tires and tried it out in the mud at the emerald city cyclocross series. I decided to try the first race of the season and was hooked from there. I found myself at all the rest of the races. I am heading down to Portland, OR for nationals this weekend, to ride and to watch and learn how it is really should be done.
I have also done a chunk of touring on my cross-check. There is really nothing like seeing a new area from two wheels.
Will anyone else be making there way to Portland this weekend? Any idea what it will be like?
thanks, ernesto
