Country Cross 09

Time of death was approximately 11:50 am on Sunday November 15th. Cycling has lived a good season and the closing lap of the Country Cross at 11:49 am was a good way to end it.

This little grassroots event was dynamite. It was evident that a lot of hard work went into it and the payoff was big.

Some highlights:

1. Great course design which included a teeter-totter and horse manure
2. Good rider participation
3. BBQ/drinks/tee-shirts

Will cycling have a revival? Perhaps it is best to think of the Country Cross as the jumpstart to the new season.

Stumbled across this site, On The Dirt Side. It is the tales of local mountain bike racer, Sue, and it chronicles an entire season racing and life's distractions in between. Sorry to say I've missed out on this for so long.
