Charm City in Baltimore, Maryland, has been hot and dry for the fast few years, which makes sense since as the second race weekend of the season, it’s still practically summertime. However, in keeping with the streak of bad weather on the East Coast for the past month, the race opened with a chilly, drizzling morning: perfect cyclocross weather. Racers and spectators alike complained about the cooler conditions, since this early in the season, the legwarmers are still buried in attics and basements. However, the cooler weather didn’t seem to hurt the Euro visitors, and Helen Wyman and Ian Field repeated their winning performances from last week at Nittany Lion Cross.
On September 25, Guy’s Racing Club presents round 5 of the Mid-Atlantic Cyclocross Series with the return of The WhirlyBird Cross. Located on the Huntington Valley campus of Bryn Athyn College, this challenging and spectator-friendly course brings world class racing to suburban Philadelphia and serves as a model for community service and competition.

Philadelphia, Pennsylvania — Hup, hup and away! Shortly after the board and promoters of the Mid-Atlantic Cyclocross Series (The MAC) announced the 2011 schedule, over 1,100 entrants registered for the first two events. With only 30 days until the opening race and some categories close to capacity, the series is poised for great success.
January in Philadelphia means the Mummers and their world-famous New Year’s parade. It also means the Champion System MAC Series’ traditional “MACquet” Party is at hand. In both cases, alcohol may be a contributing factor. The source of MAC’s alcohol is the venue itself, the famed Manayunk Brewery restaurant and pub in Philadelphia’s funky and [...]
