Thought I'd start a thread to see if any monkeys are coming to Bend for cyclocross nationals next month. There is going to be a ridiculous amount of fun! and maybe some
Score! I'm praying that there is a ton of snow and the conditions are miserable. I figure that's my only chance of getting a top 20. Have you scoped the course? Rumor is the course has two long run ups.pray for snow. This morning it is snowing. I am taking part in the Bike Culture event downtown one of the nights. Costumes, music and dancing are invloved. Be very afraid.
The course isn't quite all there - they are going to build some stuff and put it up the day before the race. I'll go take pics of what is there tomorrow and post pics.Score!

For cross I don't think so. Oddly enough, in mountain biking the pro men don't have to qualify but the amateurs do...never understood that.do you have to qualify for nationals?
Yeah I am. I was busting his chops about driving 4 hours so he could win a race He's trying to win the BAR competition and I don't think they weight the races based on the number of riders...so a win is a win. He even went over to Klamath for one of their raceswell maybe i'll see if any locals are headed out there. btw ire you're a capitol subaru rider right? evan plews has been crushing down here in the southern oregon series
edit: i guess there might not be as much competition down here though... ha
Hell yes! My wish is coming true!Well, the weather could be interesting. It's tough for them to forecast here because of the mountains that always stall out the weather system and steal our snow in town. BUT, there are 5 days of snow forecast to start this coming Sunday. Could be interesting!!!!!
Rumor is 180 Elite Men I don't think they made the laps big enough to support that many racers2,041 registered racers as of yesterday. This is going to be awesome.
I doubt it. I'm going to stop by today and get a look at the course. They were working on it all day yesterday. Looks like it will be "warm" for your race Sunday. Highs should be mid 30's. Not like right now where it's -1Rumor is 180 Elite Men I don't think they made the laps big enough to support that many racers
