Cross.....

Well, with RIM cancelled, I had no choice but to face the inevitable... Time to take the slicks off the cross bike and put on the knobbies....

Big thanks to JPS and BikeSourse, these Specialized Tracer Pro's corner like they are on rails....

So I headed out to the Cross course that the Hippy and company put together and its effen SWEET! Easily one of the best laid out courses I have ever been on... Go Check it out!

Which brings me to this weekend, with RIM cancelled, Its off to Manions Cross. For this I am utterly unprepared... After my first lap out on the course I found out some hard facts.

Most important one being: Putting in 4 hours on the road to gear up for an endurance race does absolutely NOTHING to prepare you for cross!!!

Well, session ended, I felt like fat girl playing dodge ball out there!
Lungs hurt? check! Legs hurt? Check!
I did not get anywhere near my fat tire racing out of me. However, cross is here, can't fight it anymore...
