Cyclocross - CX and SSCX races and training

Ah ok. I thought they were sort of an all-rounder. Anyway this exchange explains why they are barely used.

mud can strike at any time.

be ready

How close to the event do Incredibly Cross usually reveal the race location?

on the day I think

Usually at midday the day before, but depends how moody a location it is.

I'm sure @Incredibly_Cross can confirm (or deny).

Pidcock's debut in the elite ranks about to start:

Ta!

Pretty impressive to score a top ten in your first race at this level.

I've a pair of specialized terra pro clinchers that were used once if anyone is interested @ 40 quid? I've realised my interest in cx has dwindled thanks to my growing interest in mountain biking and am unlikely to race this year.

I have a pair. They are well good. I paid 40gbp as well for hardly used pair. Are yours the tubeless ones?

Also, anybody racing Central League tomorrow? I hear it is is hilly ;-(

Doesn't specifically say so on the sidewalls but I had them set up tubeless.

2rBlissI think it is called. Lovely tires nonetheless

Yeah I have always used them, big fan

Yep, first ever cx so doing novice men's, did 100k on the bike today, and it's a bit grippy out on the road!

Selling my cyclo-cross stuff as not got the time for the rest of the season. Really gutted but hey that's life.

Enjoyed the Eastern Cross opener but that was over a month ago now.

Tempted. You training it?

@Sainsburys_Ed do the seniors FFS

No. Got a lift. But see you there!

Can't find the location. Doesn't appear to be on the CXL website, or I can't find it. Where is it?

Hemmel Hempstead

Hah, yes. That's the easy bit.

Where in Hemel?

I went straight into the seniors race in the Wessex league, I was right at the back but it was fine and you get an extra 20 mins of racing :-)

New to cross. Just wondering if the HHV trails are free to smash around? Can't find a calender for it.

Where in Hemel?

Massive range of abilities in the Open race, do that. It's an easy feature-free course with no narrow bits, so you're not going to get in anyone's way. Or do Novice then the Senior race afterwards.
