Part of this post is to give props and respect to those folks putting it out there and showing the people really do want to keep racing cyclo-cross in January. Step 2 would really be putting my money where my mouth is and showing up to support some of these events. It would be really great to go "on tour" preaching the gospel of cyclo-cross to the faithful.

Whew. I gotta think about this one. Maybe the sponsors want to get involved and help make this happen. It's an awesome idea, but at a cost to my road season, maybe. How much cost is hard to say. If I'm in Tucson, I do the Shootout every Saturday, so what's the difference? Road training all week, 'cross races on the weekend.

CAN'T STOP WON'T STOP! CAN'T STOP WON'T STOP! CAN'T STOP WON'T STOP! CAN'T STOP WON'T STOP!

http://www.nccyclocross.com/ The NC races are pretty good. There is a lot of people from DC area driving down to them this year.

Trey and Cycle Therapy are running the Rome series as a grass roots effort. It is a bit smaller than the others but full of charm. Hope you can make it one of the weekends. Let me know what you need and if I can help. We would love to have you!

Hey Adam, you should come down and do the Tennessee State Championship weekend. We are in Johnson City, just an hour west of Asheville. MSG organizes it and its a premo event, even if I'm the organizer.
