Yeah I know that, I just meant I'm the age of a master! I'll be in the B women's race that goes with the little kiddies. There isn't a specific beg. race at this event. Its only a relatively small club ride, and only 30 minutes.

Hey Chains! Welcome to 'cross.

Which race are you doing this weekend? Headed to CT or to VT?

I'm going to Mansfield Hollow in CT, no pressure to perform or anything. I have never been in any kind of race in my entire life, so it will be different.

I haven't yet decided if I am doing that race this weekend, but if I do, I will let you know! A couple of my teammates are registered though.

Here is a brief description from one of my teammates: It has a little bit of off camber stuff, run-ups, and wooded single track. She said that she really likes this course.

If this is your first race, remember that the most important thing is to HAVE FUN! This is my first season of 'cross racing, but I am having a blast!

And if those "little kiddies" are actually juniors, look out! Teenagers are fast and furious, sometimes a bit wreckless, and seem to feel no pain. Don't let their age deceive you.

Have a blast! Keep smiling and remember you're awesome just for racing. It's a tough sport but can be so much fun!!!
