Tell’em Joe!

Boulder Report | No Confidence Open Letter to Hein Verbruggen, Dick Pound, Pat McQuaid, John Fahey et al.: By Joe Lindsey

Let me make this as perfectly, crystal clear as possible:

Stop.

The political back-and-forth, the mud-slinging, the lawsuits, the puerile saber-rattling nonsense that has characterized the sport of cycling, the state of anti-doping and [...]

So when is the After Party?

The Last Call Cyclocross Race (and Utah Cyclocross Series Awards Party) were yesterday …

On a morning that looked like it was going to be another epic snow day in the valley, got up and headed down to Wheeler Farm to work the final Utah cyclocross race of the season. It was a day where [...]

Organise!

BILLY BRAGG – THERE IS POWER IN A UNION

There is power in a factory, power in the land Power in the hands of a worker But it all amounts to nothing if together we don’t stand There is power in a Union

Now the lessons of the past were all learned with workers’ [...]

Heber City Mudfest

More photos from the Heber City Mudfest can be found on Flickr … mostly women’s A & B races, along with men’s singlespeed for now … I got nearly 500 photos, and it’s taking time to sort, and I haven’t even gotten into cropping yet …

So when The Wise One says “really small riders”, [...]

Valley snow in September …

Looks like we’re gonna have us some cyclocross weather for the first race of the Utah Cyclocross Series tomorrow up in Ogden.

That’s snow falling in the pictures below. My thermometer is indicating 35 degrees outside right now; and while tomorrow is supposed to be sunny and warmer (mid-60s for the high), it ought to [...]

Sunburn sucks …

Actually had a halfway decent ride today; legs felt pretty good, only had to stop and gasp for breath a couple of times, and managed to keep my heartrate below 160 for the vast majority of the ride.

Only about 17 miles, in a little over an hour or so of on-bike time … would [...]

A clambake in Heber … in AUGUST???

You betcha, and if you weren’t there (for the race or the food), then you missed out.

The Heber Fairgrounds course is pan-flat, and yet, still very technical, with hard dirt, soft dirt, mud, horse poop, sand, gravel, lots and lots of bumpy grass, s-turns and more, making this a true cyclocross course, rather than [...]

Cyclocross makes the Newspaper of Record

Cyclocross Is Colorful. Mud-Colored, That Is …, at least according to The New York Times.

It’s nice to see our niche sport get some coverage in such a major, national media outlet.

Don’t forget to check out the slideshow as well.

Is it Cyclocross Season yet?

Here it is, April 30, and I’m already thinking about cyclocross season.

Yes, the ski resorts are mostly closed, the weather is warming up, and all I can think about is when it’s going to get cold again, when it’s going to snow again, and when I can go out and play in the mud [...]
