Ok sorted that account info all out, maybe... but anyway, here we go, it's that time of year, CX racing is just around the corner, 3 days to be exact to the MFG Cyclocross Cycle U Kick-Off Cross.  Well there was some racing earlier... We did this little event at the Suncadia resort in Cle Elum with MFG and Raleigh cycles in July. Placed 2nd in the masters, and a DFL in the singlespeed, but hey it was fun.  
2 new bikes to roll on this year, thanks to the ReCycle Shop here in Ellensburg.  A not so stock Specialized Crux running 1x10 for the geared races, and an obnoxiously hot pink Crux frame-set built into a SingleSpeed for that little torture fest. 
Why both races?  Well the short of it is I want to win the Cat 4 masters... and the SS, well i just love single speeding, and I am a glutton for punishment.  I know the SS fields are stacked and have elite riders, and I am fully prepared to get lapped, though my goal is to stay on that lead lap, have fun and take as many beer hand-ups as I can.  So there it is, watch for updates and pictures, they will come.
