I've never done a cyclocross race. I almost did one, once, but it didn't work out. That's another story. I've done cyclocross "practice" on several occasions, and it was a blast. Just never done a race. But I have a crazy itch to race cross this year. I don't have time, I hardly have the energy to do any kind of training, and I don't even have a 'cross bike. So, what the hell, right? I'm going to race cross.
My kids and bikes really have me inspired right now.
More on this as it develops.
