the spirit of the day at the ed sander's memorial cyclocross eventray charles could have pointed a camera in any direction to have captured the spirit of the day at the ed sander's memorial cyclocross event
the intensity in all the classes was only matched by the comaraderie
right now cyclocross has an energy that is nothing short of positive
it was not long ago that cross was considered a place you could go to laugh at yourself
now people are starting to get serious with cyclocross
yet it is still very much fun
the images above are from the lil belgian cross race that the folks at NCVC hosted for the kids today
the image plays out the story of the day no different from the perspective of the adult racers
anxiety was broken with prerides and final checks on the bike
there was some confusion at the line why some people are getting call ups while others are not
there are some games of cat and mouse
fatigue
the course gets more fluid after a few laps
barriers get more difficult as the race progresses
the competition creates comaraderie
after the race strangers become friends as the share in the excitement of the day
