Hey All, Bike Nut just opened on Filbert between Fillmore and Steiner in SF. Great shop...carrying Giant, Colnago, Merlin, Ti, and Ibis. Grand opening was ...
Good luck to everyone at Natz this weekend! Please don't forget that winners in each age group get 50% off of our package to Mol, Belgium from 19-22 January...
Here's the latest batch of photos from Pilarcitos #3 and #4. Unfortunately the more I try to mess with the manual settings on the camera the fewer decent...
Mike Hernandez sent me the following and I thought it appropriate to share with the group. I can relate:----------------------------------my dorky rant Please...
thanks to mike for the rant, he has good points and i just wanted to add a comment of my own. this one is for parents. i know you're busy getting ready for...
Yet another point on this subject, often we forget that there are other park users roaming around the course on race day, who may or may not understand or care...
Big thanks to Michael and Ben, two of the best racers in the district, for brining this subject to light. Too bad it's the end of the season, but maybe we can...
Suggestion for better warmup alternative: WALK the course - you learn more about the tricky spots and how people ride them. And it's easier to stay out of the...
another tip: get there early. it's unfortuneate but true that people are not very good at governing themselves and an open rule such as "you can pre-ride if...
Thank you Lori, you said everything I have been feeling for the last four years. I'll never leave the cross scene but after being injured this last year,...
Hi kids, just joined the group. Paule Bates Dude, 35+ B I Live in SF I ride a Felt and Surly singlespeed Racing for 10 years, mostly mtn., some road MTB/Cross...
I happened to have witnessed the incident and it was SCARY to see. A few more inches one way or the other and it could have been a lot worse. I think Mike...
here's what i think the proper protocol for warming up is. it involves riding on the course, while others are racing, and i think anyone can benefit. i wait...
"above all, treat other racers with respect, they deserve it." Not to mention they paid their entry fee and deserve to get their money's worth. I know it...
Actually you can have a time for warm-ups at Cross races without interfering with the on going races. JUst like at Crits were the course is open for warm-up...
i agree with Casey that it is possible to incorporate a 15 min warmup time between each race. they do this at all the UCI races. they also take it a step...
... feel the course through your shoes. Yeah that is it exactly. Like how deep is the dirt or mud (ok no mud around here), how slick is it underneath, where...
One more suggestion, pre-ride the course the day before when/where possible. The USGP/Surf City/Pilarcitos courses were marked the evening before. I rode...
If there is no built-in warmup time, my solution for warming up before my race is to make sure I'm dressed and ready to go when the previous race goes off....
While we are talking about rolling, it should always be done with a helmet on. I know, I know, it's cross season and we all want to be "low key", and I am not...
Well it was fun while it lasted. No Grand Prix races in Cali next year. It's Boulder, Lacey Washington or Portland, unless you want to cross the Mississippi...
The costs to hold the USGP race a second year was too great without secured sponsors. We got some bad-o's representing NorCal at Natz in both Men and Women...
I'm sure that VeloNews is a major sponsor had something to do with it. At least to why there is a Colorado venue. Good luck to all the NorCal at Nationals. J...
Just heard: "they just cancelled the rest of the day. *Bad* weather (wind, sleet, whiteout) and dropping temps" Knapp won the 40+ and Tilford the 45+ and I'm...
