What a great weekend of racing! Great Weather, Great courses, Great turnouts! The smell of CYCLOCROSS is in the air!  I'll be posting links to photo galleries as they trickle in.

SATURDAY

Dirty Wooden Shoe cross kicked off the weekend with a new venbue near the dam at Lake Red Rock!  Kudos to the Pella Bike Racing Team for putting on a challenging and technical race course!  Loved the plastic barriers!

SUNDAY

Altoona CX was in... well.. Altoona!  Lions Park was again the venue of choice by the crew at Zealous Racing. A record number of racers threw down on a beautiful Fall day. Great spectating from all angles! Especially the "Slick Ditch" that took down it's fair share of racers... and an added bonus, it was right by all the spectators.
