Local 4/5 cyclocross race. 19 of 32 or 33. First cx race. Tire pressure too high and bounced around the course. Typical roadie wuss error. Slid out once. Made some passes, got passed. My tire tread seemed a little weak looking around also. Maybe good fast gravel tires, but not cross!
That mid pack finish was all fitness and zero skill. I’ve only ever ridden a cross course twice before to practice. I can run the bike and jump, but missed the pedal 3x.
Was fun though. More personality and entertainment factor than riding road. Folks cheering on every finisher to dig and get it done.
I’ll do the next one on Raleigh amd maybe the one in my hometown.
