Alright, I have been strictly a roadie for the past year and a half. My SO started to race cross last year and he fell in love with it. After hearing about how much he loves it, and how much he is sure I will love it, I have decided to try it this year.

I am going to be borrowing bikes from his co-workers(he works at a bike shop) for my first race(s) to see if i like it, but I was wondering- what should I do to get ready, what should I expect? (i am sitting here, recovering from knee surgery,so i figured why not learn about what I am going to be doing this next year)

any advice would be greatly appreciated!!
