Cyclo-cross (eyed...)

So now that the MTB season is done... and i've had a little time to rest... it's 'cross season!!! i took the first few races off, but made it out to Guelph last weekend for my first... and always painful.. cross race of the year. I knew that it would hurt... and keep hurting... and i was right. The only good news is that i was able to start with Peter Mogg, Andrew Crouch and Ted Ingram... but only stayed with them for 2 of the 9 laps.... once they got a bit of a gap and started working together, i knew there was no pulling them back. It turned out to be a nice day, and i was pleased with my first shot at 'cross this season.... and i even won $10!!!! I know what i have to do to get back into shape for it... and those days with come with the help of a great group of riders on Tuesday nites.... hard rides that make racing easier. I have plans to do at least one race on Thanksgiving weekend before doing both at the Toronto Cyclocross weekend.... and then a few more before provincials in Ottawa. The fun never stops....
