Way to go Box....

Cross season here runs until Mid-January so we are still at it and still getting muddy. Really muddy. Willow beach on a crap day kind of muddy and that is just practice.

Hi everyone,

I would like to send out an invite to all those interested in going to the NBX G.P. of Cross/Verge Finale in Warwick, Rhode Island Dec 5-6. The plan is to leave early Friday morning, go straight to the race course to pre-ride, race on Saturday and Sunday then head home right after the men’s elite race on Sunday. For those in the Kingston-Ottawa region, I plan to cross the border at Gananoque and can make arrangements to meet you en route.

What is included on the trip:

This weekend was round 2 of the Irish Super-Cross Cup.  This race was in Dublin, so no long trip to Northern Ireland for me this time.  Instead a sedate 15K peddle across town.

Hi all,

I would like to send out an invite to all those interested in going to the USGP Mercer Cup in Trenton, NJ on November 13-15. The plan is to leave early Friday morning, go straight to the race course to pre-ride, race on Saturday and Sunday then head home right after the men’s elite race on Sunday. For those in the Kingston-Ottawa region, I plan to cross the border at Gananoque and can make arrangements to meet you en route.

What is included on the trip:

As some of you know I am spending the year in Ireland for work purposes.  I am on a sabbatical from York University to do a research project with faculty at University College Dublin- which means we are living and working just south of Dublin city centre.  The key thing to this job is that it gives me lots of flexibility, which means lots of time for non-work adventures on the cross-bike.

Awesome day for a cross race. conditions @ 10am were Sunny , -5 c ,light winds and hard snow covered grass with occational icy patchs right at the apex.

Had a great start from inside row 4, got to the front just intime to see robert orange and another rider tangle in the first corner. Sorry to see robert go down.

Rode with a group of three riders for most of the race. they would gap me on the long power sections and I would catch back up in the tecnicial decents and climbs/run-ups section.

Hi all,

Just wanted to let everyone know that I will be driving down to the USGP of Cyclocross Derby City Cup in Louisville, KY on October 23-25. I will also be heading out to the Verge Series NBX Grand Prix of Cross in Warwick, RI on December 4-6. Seats are still available for both trips so do step up as they will go quickly.

What is included on the trips:

- Transportation of you and up to two bikes and all the wheels you can carry to the race in a 9 passenger van with enclosed trailer

Forgot to mention that Angry Johnny  will be riding the STAN'S tires TUBELESS, yes TUBELESS this weekend in Kearney.

 Looks like plus temp. for the racing on Sat. Bring your shorts and jersey. 

 

 With all the cold weather and snow lately, cabin fever has started to settle in.  So its time to head down to the local hardware store and purchase a giant bag of 1/4 in #6 pan head screws.  Take that old pair of tires that you just cant through out because they still have a bit of tread on them and Screw the Hell out of them.  Just finished a Stans CROW 29 er tire with 560 screws.
