I was there Sunday afternoon. I would concur that the event seemed very well organized; fan attendance seemed thin; the course was dry and the weather was spectacular until some rain started at about 2:40pm before the elite mens. Although I suppose with CX, rain and mud is part of the fun.

It was fun to watch. I would have liked to watch more, but the only way I could go was by bringing my 3 little kids. We brought bells, cymbals and other noisemakers but after a couple laps, the kids were more interested in the playground. So I caught some of the womens and mens elite races going by from the playground at Fireman's Park.

As a fan of lugged steel, I thought it was cool that one of the elite women was riding a Richard Sachs frame.
