Tim Johnson may not have raced cyclocross at Sea Otter, but he was more than happy to jump on the microphone to help out with announcing and heckling duties, and when Ryan Trebon was setting up to sprint Troy Wells for second place in the race, Johnson’s booming voice could be heard all over [...]
Raleigh will be happy tonight, since their two racers took wins in both the Elite men’s and Elite women’s races. The evening races, held at the tail end of the festivities, still kept crowds lively even as the sun went down, and the racers put on a show, particularly at the barriers near the beer [...]
by David Evans LOUISVILLE, KENTUCKY – In front of a raucous, cheering international crowd that thundered and roared, 36-year-old Sven Nys (Belgium) cemented his position as a living legend of cyclocross by winning his second World Championship title on a Kentucky flood plain. A second rainbow jersey has long frustrated the Belgian hero, to the [...]
Disc brake rotors typically include many cut-outs for weight savings, but those holes often serve as the perfect place for pad-eating sand and dirt to camp out and wear down brake pads. Over the course of the season, we’ve seen this proven several times: Cyclocross Magazine’s Andrew Yee attended a mid-season wet cyclocross race, and along [...]
On the heels of Nationals, there was perhaps an even more exciting behind-the-scenes contest happening: the decision as to who would fill the discretionary spots on the US Worlds team. We already covered the qualification process and looked at who already had slots: Jonathan Page, Jeremy Powers, Katie Compton, Kaitie Antonneau, Zach McDonald and Logan [...]
With the countdown clock to Nationals tick, tick, ticking away, we at Cyclocross Magazine realized that it had been far too long since we last caught up with our Issue 18 cover-boy, Ryan Trebon. He started the season strong, seemingly the only American who could really give Jeremy Powers a run for his money, and [...]
Photog Jason Perry shared some of his images — both race and environmental — from the USGP in Bend, Oregon, with us, and even though the event was two weeks ago, we had a feeling readers would love his images. After all, in our Reader Awards Survey nominations, USGP Bend is the most written-in “best [...]
The last weekend of the USGP saw some amazing racing: Gould and Nash duking it out for the win on day one, Johnson flying off the front of the men’s field early on in day two, Summerhill’s appallingly bad luck both days that cost him a potential podium, 17-18 winner Logan Owen’s two minute lead [...]
BEND, OREGON – Day 2 of the Deschutes Brewery USGP in Bend saw similar weather conditions to the first day of racing, though the tactics in both races were notably different, as each race was won in a solo off the front that was started early and held. Elite Women Nicole Duke (Alchemy) snagged the [...]
BEND, OREGON – Home of Nationals in 2009 and 2010, home of the Halloween weekend Cross Crusade, home of the USGP, and perhaps most important, home of the Deschutes Brewery, Bend is the destination for bike racers. As Danny Summerhill told us, “It’s one of my favorite places for riding, hands down.” So it was [...]
