Boulder Cross Race #4 - Xilinx

I'm pretty sure not too many people rode their bikes for fun today, unless they were one of the 500 or so weirdos at Xilinx that love cross! I'm still not really sure what the course looked like other than a black strip of mud meandering through a nice field of snow. Mother nature made it fun, somewhere around 30°F and slop that was up yer bottom bracket. Here's Greg making his way through one of the trickier sections on the course.


The conditions made for a foot race in some sections, as the course detiorated throughout the day.

Some racers had two bikes, and pulled into the pit area to swap out every lap or so. I had one bike that weighed as much as two bikes by the end of the day.
