Not only my first #cx race in Europe but my first ever!

5 Comments

I never had a chance to compete in any local GA races in the past. And also before my @hillclarke painted @611bicycleco #nahbs bike I didn’t have a #cyclocross bike. Then today I didn’t have the proper tires! ; ) Despite being a rookie and sporting relatively slick treads, I managed to keep passing people and navigate the mud without eating it but certainly got smoked by some heavy hitters! Thank you for the photos @drstaceyrose!

Some THICK mud!

My number one supporter hauling race gear, kids, coffee and more into brutal crosswinds. Tough as nails! She refused to let me pilot the bakfiets!

Loose Nuts has started a morning ride series, for CX skills to start your day.

Meet at 7:20am Tuesday, Thursday, and Fridays in front of the shop and roll out at 7:30am.

With enough consistent riders, an informal race series could start on the Friday session.

Check the AMCS Facebook page for the most up-to-date info and follow the Loose Nuts’ twitter and FB page as well.

Of course if you need tubulars glued, your cross bike dialed, a new complete race rig or a sweet race kit, stop by Loose Nuts!
