Cyclocross - CX and SSCX races and training

I am in for Saturday morning but will meet you here http://goo.gl/maps/6gWnr instead.

Good stuff. Do you have a time in mind?

Around 09.00?

I can't make Saturday, but if anyone fancies doing this on either Tuesday the 24th or Wednesday the 25th then let me know.

I've some additional loops in mind too.

Around 09.00?

Can do that, but will either be riding my XC bike or the wife's crosser, the later of which will likely be a touch too small for me.

If we start later, say 10/11am there's a chance I could be sporting the new cross rig. And what better way to test it.

Interested, for sure.

I will confirm if I can start at 10/11am later on.

Cheers :)

I am good for a later start. Let me know what time you can be in West Wickham.

I'll aim for 10.30 - anything later and we'll be out all day.

Is anyone racing the Wessex League race in Oxford on Sunday? I am hoping that my bike handling skills will get me through the race, it sure as hell won't be my fitness!

And looking at the weather forecast all I can say is 'Bring on the mud' !!!

Possible - would like to get a race in this weekend, and the weather is looking truly hideous making schlepping it to Deal less attractive.

Yes should be racing Wessex, the course isnt too technical. The steep banks should be fun after all the rain.

Funny, I don't remember the three pimples ride being quite so ruinous. Lots of sand.

Cheers Hyperbole for the ride - I can certainly feel the nettles now!

Can you chuck me over the GPX file Howard?

Thanks for the company howard, your new bike is awesome.

Hah yeah - gonna need some sintered brake pads for the next time though. So. Much. Sand.

tl;dr

will join you at the end of this month or start of next, just marking this thread.

Say Hi if you see me, I will be riding an orange Kona bike, most likely at the back of the senior group, my legs are wrecked from riding over some tough Welsh hills today, plus I am a Vetran, although refuse to race in the vetrans race as it is so short....

Me too. Now that the madness of moving house is subsiding.

The better half giving it some welly down the embankment this afternoon.

I spent a lot of time cleaning / repairing and tuning the bike after yesterday's baptism of fire.

Recon I could make a sub €100 CX bike?
