today, 10 am: the gun goes off. we go.
I promised myself that I wasn’t going to post a lot of cyclo-cross stuff this year. But this is awesome: the film coverage of a ‘cross race from 1944.
Had the most lovely bike ride on Saturday afternoon. Four of us rolled out of the parking lot at White Clay about 2 in the afternoon with a few little flakes swirling about. About an hour later we were laying down the first waffle-prints in swiftly accumulating snow. White clay is lovely — groomed smooth and fast. Über-fun. Spent the rest of the weekend holed up watching movies in bed, which is it’s own kind of fun, too.
I promise I’ll write about something other than bicycles real soon now.
