I usually ride 700 x 30 or 700 x 32; I think there are 28s and some 34s too. So, this post is confusing to me. First off, yes, falling on dirt is better than falling on pavement, but just because you fall on dirt, does not get it out of the way. Don't care how long you have been riding, and especially if you are going to race, you are going to fall sometimes

So, B Boston, how do you do this "I'm supposed to be having baby #2 this winter", and race both cyclocross and track? You do know you have to train to race, right? So, if you are pregnant, you should not get your heart rate as high as you would need to race and/or train to race. Or, are you just sort of pregnant? Or, wishing to be pregnant?
