• Can I Go Riding?

  22 August 10 • 0 comment

  

  It’s that time of year again. Time to start cashing in on all those trips to the mall with your partner, all those times you got up in the middle of the night to take care of the baby. Time to start pulling out every excuse in the book to get out on your bike. [...]

  11 July 10 • 0 comment

  The Independence Day Cyclocross Classic kicked of the Bike Hutt’s July ‘cross series last weekend, the first of four races put on by Go Home Yanqui Promotions.

• Video: Ride, Run or None of the Above?

  15 June 10 • 4 comments

  

  It’s an age-old debate among ’crossers: when to ride, when to run. The same section of a course will elicit a variety of approaches from different racers. The video below shows a third alternative. After unsuccessfully trying to ride one technical section and bogging down, with competitors scampering on past, one racer opts for Plan [...]

• Get Thee to DeKalb, Illinois, for the Gravel Metric

  15 May 10 • 1 comment

  

  If you’ll be anywhere near DeKalb, Illinois on Sunday, May 30th, the Gravel Metric looks too good to pass up. Although the promoters at North Central Cyclery claim that it’s a spirited ride rather than a race, the “62 miles of self-supported mayhem” should be fun. Besides, when was the last time that you went [...]

• Halfway Through the Offseason, Cyclocross Videos to Keep Our Focus

  1 May 10 • 0 comment

  

  by Josh Liberles I’ll cut to the chase here – it’s been way too long since the last ‘cross race. By my rough (U.S.-season-based) calculations, we’re just about at the midpoint of the “offseason.” Are you bored with your road racing, MTB’ing or whatever the heck it is you people do to kill time during [...]

  8 April 10 • 2 comments

  

  by Josh Liberles Cyclocross season hasn’t been over for long now, and as we watch the best roadies duke it out in northern Europe, the oft-asked question is, “Why don’t more of these guys race cyclocross?”  – Lars Boom, Marianne Vos, Steve Chainel, et al excluded. The obvious short answer is that the pay scales [...]

  3 April 10 • 2 comments

  A few days ago Sven mentioned a new endeavor called “project M” on his blog. Now however all is revealed: Sven Nys will ride motocross! As if Sven Nys, arguably the best technical ‘crosser in the business, needs any more work on his skills! Sven Nys (33) just had another very good winter. The Landbouwkrediet-Colnago [...]

• Cult Cross Cometh to Colorado, This Weekend

  2 April 10 • 1 comment

  The Cult Cross 2010 flyer’s headline says it all: “Suffer in the Spring As You Do in the Fall.” Maybe you’ve built up some early season road/mtb fitness, but you yearn to be back where you belong, on the ‘cross course? The Eagle, Colorado venue will host six “flights” of races tomorrow (April 3, 2010), [...]

  27 March 10 • 3 comments

  

  Great to see an electronic media class putting their skills and available technology to a worthy, important cause – namely, making a cyclocross video! It shouldn’t be surprising that this well-done synopsis of the sport comes for the ‘cross hotbed of Oregon, with plenty of Cross Crusades footage as well as the elements of the “sideline [...]
