There will be a cx intro and practice tomorrow night at Armleder Park, last week we spent 45 minutes working on some cx skills and 45 minutes doing laps around the park. I hope to have time to paint some turns before practice, put out cones and promise to remember my barriers. i am inviting the Lionheart juniors (don't think because of their age they ride slow) and copied local shops to improve turn out. If you are new come join us, if you're a grizzled vet come help us. i promise both groups will get a workout.

There will be an eastside cx practice tonight at 6pm at Armleder Park, last week we had some very skilled racers come share their knowledge, practiced running double barriers and did laps around the park. This week we'll practice off camber turns, sprints and swap leading laps. Most of the turns are painted and I'll bring my cones and barrier (hopefully a double barrier again Eric?). If you are new to 'cross come join us, if you're a grizzled vet come help us. I promise both groups will get a workout.

There will be an eastside cx practice tomorrow night at 6pm at Armleder Park, last week off camber turns, this week we'll skills practice and of course do lead and hot laps around the park. Most of the turns are painted and I'll bring my cones and practice barriers. If you are new to 'cross come join us, if you're a grizzled vet come help us. I promise both groups will get a workout.

Terrific turn-out last week of vets, newbies, and everything in between. Join us tomorrow night for cx practice at 6pm at Armleder Park, last week we did 1 lap, 2 lap, 3 lap and 1 lap warm down both lead and hot laps with some skills mixed in, expect more of the same tomorrow. 1 lap is a little over 1.5mi. Many turns are painted but fading, I'll bring my cones and practice barriers. If you are new to 'cross come join us, if you're a grizzled vet come help us. I promise both groups will get a workout.

Armleder or Urban CX, that is the question. While we race in mud and slop we cannot afford to tear up the park for a practice, I think it will be okay but if it's too soft to ride I'll send a note later today. We could do a lap in the park then ride to town to try my urban cx route, note road tires on your cx bike are preferred.

I promise both groups will get a workout, I'll be going easier than normal to save a little gas for tomorrow nights cx tt.

Join us tonight for cx practice at 6pm at Armleder Park. We'll do slow laps (usually led by one of the regulars), hot laps, sprints and stand around bantering about all things 'cross. THE GUN CLUB RACE IS IN TOWN THIS SUNDAY, IF YOU NEED TO BRUSH UP YOUR SKILLS OR TEST YOUR NEW WHEELS COME TO ARMLEDER PARK AT 6. If you haven't joined us in a while or if you come every week, all are welcome - we love sharing our passion.
