Hi,
I am very very new to cyclocross. I would like to get into it but am just starting out. Can anyone offer a link to a blog / article or other good info of how to approach the whole process of gettin started and developing the necessary skills? Most of my riding is currently done in the basement on a trainer.
thanks

I'm also a potential newbie....finally decided to jump in by buying this book. So far so awesome...lots of really helpful basics, plus sample training plans, step by step technique, etc. I'm impressed.

And I haven't yet seen these, but other threads recommend the VeloNews video series. Check it out at http://www.velonews.com/article/11117

Good luck!

This is the Madison, WI cyclocross site, but there's a 101 page that can help get you started w/ videos and such.
