I have photos from the Charm City race in which riders have both legs extended in the air behind them as they remount after an obstacle. I can't tell you how many times I cringed watching that move.
Good luck in the race today!

"How about if we all just try to follow these very simple rules of the road? Drive like the person ahead on the bike is your son/daughter. Ride like the cars are ambulances carrying your loved ones to the emergency room. This should cover everything, unless you are a complete sociopath."
David Desautels, in a letter to velonews.com

My first race is now under my belt. I only puked once before my race due to absolute nervousness of never having raced this type of race before. The 40 minutes +1 was one of the hardest efforts of my life. It is now the day after the race and I still feel like crap. My mediocre result showed that I need to do more high intensity training. I was 9 of 15 in the Women's Cat 3 race. Boy can those roadies turn on the heat.
Happy CX season everyone,Just keep pedaling.
