Cyclocross and Gravelbiking (Recreational) This has to be the most physically intense sport ever invented. It's high speed bicycle racing on a short off road course or riding the off pavement rides on gravel like : "Unbound Gravel". We also have a dedicated Racing forum for the Cyclocross Hard Core Racers.

Why didn't.....

It looks to me to be a 2005 XO-1.As for being overrated how many of us would have a chance to ride with or against him in the T.D.F.

Why doesnt the man TRI any more. I know becuase he is a cyclist, but dont yuo think it would be cool if he brought back his young life.



As for him being over rated, why dont you go to the tour de france, and exactley what he has done, then you tell me he is over rated.

I'm gonna have to say that if 'bad-ass' also means 'over-rated' I will have to agree.
I just wanna see him play Bike polo.

He is most likely running because he doesn't spend a lot a time practicing his uphill barrier bunny-hops. Look behind him.
