After a long wait, cyclocross season has finally arrived! For some, this marks the time to lay aside the bike and start having a few more beers. For others, it is the best part of the racing calendar. No more riding around endless circles of pavement... cyclocross offers varied terrain, technical turns, and most importantly barriers. It is the steeplechase of cycling.
I first discovered cyclocross about a year ago and since the end of the Chicago series last December, I have been impatiently waiting for this year's season to begin. The Chicago 'Cross Cup (www.chicrosscup.com) kicked off on Saturday with a race in Jackson Park. Get-A-Grip had a number of riders come out and a good start to the season with a (narrow) win in the women's division. Thanks to the XXX folks for creating a fun course and putting on a good race.
