So with that said. Traditional Cross bike being your weapon of choice. You will have a blast. We also try and design courses to give a cross bike the advantage. That is also according to what we have to work with at each venue.<BR/><BR/>Cross Party will be fun as well. <BR/>www.utahcyclocross.com/awardsparty.html<BR/><BR/>You should come.<BR/><BR/>MattIndohranhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02829907405547971538noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5154406597353291752.post-39524604786442499762008-12-08T23:34:00.000-07:002008-12-08T23:34:00.000-07:00I like puppiesI like puppiesStupidBikehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12994994198022740179noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5154406597353291752.post-10544823144380826202008-12-08T18:24:00.000-07:002008-12-08T18:24:00.000-07:00pat t cakes - Attitude?

So I didn't fall in love with cross, why is that so incomprehensible / blasphemous / offensive? A cross bike would not have made a big difference - I just don't thrive on racing like others do. A few races each year works for me. I liked cross more than I thought I would so I may do one or two each year.KanyonKrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01954169751206336705noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5154406597353291752.post-17514342970646735542008-12-08T15:28:00.000-07:002008-12-08T15:28:00.000-07:00pat t cakes, you sound like a fun guy, especially ...pat t cakes, you sound like a fun guy, especially to ride with.dughttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04917606372332678277noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5154406597353291752.post-10841748342693582992008-12-08T14:59:00.000-07:002008-12-08T14:59:00.000-07:00Here I try to do you a favor and just get attitude...Here I try to do you a favor and just get attitude in return.

Note that I didn't say cross sucks, I just said it didn't do much for ME. If I'm in the mood come January I'll see if I can reserve one of those demo bikes and try cross on a proper bike.

But they are really popular so you need to call in advance to reserve them.<BR/>as far as racing only if the weather is good...... phfff good weather for x would be just like last years january race.

Good job chasing me down. I was feeling pretty worked at the end.<BR/><BR/>There's always a bigger fish. I'm in pretty good shape this year, even though I'm on the decline. And I didn't even see Jason after the start. And Rob I saw once as he put his chain back on, but that was it. And I tried to keep up with an MTB guy I met at the start, but he got away. So I had plenty of humble pie myself.KanyonKrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01954169751206336705noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5154406597353291752.post-35482817982334402842008-12-06T21:38:00.000-07:002008-12-06T21:38:00.000-07:00Slight correction, you got 24th(one spot in front ...Slight correction, you got 24th(one spot in front of me) and I nearly killed myself trying to catch you on that last paved climb. But I can admit defeat when somebody shows up to a race and humbly talks about how he's not expecting much, then passes me while my life is flashing before my eyes. Your an animal. At least more of an animal than I am.JoshuaMcChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01519912090346922253noreply@blogger.com
