Nice course today! It was a shame more people couldn't make it out but it was nice have some "real" 'cross conditions finally. Some of those boggy sections were treacherous! Anyone have pics to post? I wasn't shooting today. - Mike

Indeed, it was a good mix of slow technical sections, fast open sections and water traps. All the courses have improved a lot this year, so congrats to the organizers to putting thought (and hard work) into it.

Dan Salter did a great job

Dan Salter did a great job putting that course and race together. Cash and beer is always a nice reward for a hard effort of racing. Brent

Wha? It was on the calendar with all the rest and it's been going on for years now. I figured everyone was just out of town for Turkey Day or saving their legs for today's race. Oh well, their loss then. Edit: here's a couple shots of what you missed out on if you couldn't make it: http://www.flickr.com/photos/shapelike/sets/72157622439962371/

As a CX virgin I'll sum up Durham...I CX'ED AND LOVED IT! Sure I didn't have a top end bike, but the low key environment, friendly folks, good weather, and lots of mud which made for a great experience. Now I just have to get a new set of shifters for Willowbeach!

Pretender...if you don't

Pretender...if you don't get a new set of shifters...and that might prevent you from racing, I have two cx bikes that you could choose from to ride Willowbeach. Medium frames (55cm).

Tony, thanks for the offer, thats amazing! But I'm only a l'il guy, and on a small ride (48-51cm). As of this afternoon I think I have a line on some shifters. Fingers crossed. So, I should be Willowbeach. But I'll be sure to be touch base with you at Willowbeach. Dale
