Cyclocross Biathlon!

Biathlon is the most famous winter ski sport on TV in Europe.

My friends and I have a blast doing it around our yard trail.

I just started doing it with my cyclocross practicing! I replace a set of barriers with a round of bb-gun shooting! If I miss I have a little penalty loop i gotta ride. It's awesome! The rhythm of trying to shoot good in the middle of hot-laps is cool! I get in a groove after a few laps.

I hang some plastic pop bottles. They "thwack" and swing when I hit em. Hitting several in a row is a thrill.

We leave the bb-guns on a chair and shoot off away from the course.

I look forward to doing it head to head with friends! ...You can hear hits and misses when you're out skiing -- prolly the same when biking. A miss is audible because of the groan.
