Dam Cross - CX Oct 9

Course is pretty much ready. I probably won’t stick around too late, but it is available for preride, especially good for those in the first few races.

I’ll have the club tent and a bike stand ready for those coming early.

Some good results today.
While the forecast rainy cyclocross weather was not delivered, the course had enough muddy corners and the usual allocation of beach running.

Given Mark took 3rd from Dave right at the finish line of the M3 race, I wonder how Dave feels about this exchange from earlier this week when we were convincing him to sign up? :rofl:

Race Highlights:
M3: Dan Newton (1st), @MarkR (3rd) @Davidwp (4th)
E4: @SeanBossie (1st), Zach McDonald 4th (former WCC)
M2: @Luke_Ehgoetz (4th) @KevRidesGravel (6th)
M1: @velodan Dan Souter (2nd)

Well, I probably motivated David to leave me in his dust next time. :grin: Congrats on the great efforts, everybody. Double-kudos to those at Belleville today.

Dan, are you moving up to M2?

I’ve asked to upgrade, so hopefully when OCA gets to work tomorrow they give me the go ahead and I can test my legs against @KevRidesGravel, @rosepedal & @bike_daniells at KWCX. :grinning:

Great video! I raced CX 30 years ago (!!!) and decided never again…that video momentarily made me consider it…momentarily. :grimacing:

Overall a great day out racing bikes, and some really good results by several club members.

The weather really was special. The ground was wet which made for some fun muddy conditions, but we didn’t get any rain falling on us, and the sun even poked out from time to time.

M3 Podium

E4 Podium

M1 Podium

And remember, CX racing is serious business

Looks like a great time was had by all. Sorry I missed it.

I love Dan’s podium shot. Hopefully he can move up a category for the next race.
