That is hot. And I, like SheFly, pretty much suitcase or outrigger my bike. Partly because I am short and my bike is small and doesn't have a big triangle to finagle my arm and shoulder through.

So much fun...I never imagined I could have such a great time being so miserable for 30+ minutes!

LOL! Yup - THIS is the essence of cross!

Thanks for the tips SheFly I will try it. I had planned on taking cages off for races just put them on for some mileage on my farm roads.

Congratulations!

I suitcase carry my bike for barriers and short obstacles, but we have a lot of long run-ups out here and I much prefer to shoulder the bike for those.

That seatpost is interesting. What's going on there?

Wahine, It's specialized new cobble-gobbler seat post. Love it, stock with this model otherwise $200. Have one on the way for my roubaix. I have been riding both bikes and wow. A couple days on the cross bike in my little rolling hill route then I smoke on the road bike. Still waiting on my hubbies cross bike to come in, 61's are hard to find right now.
