So we just finished up with 3 cross races in 4 days between the Coonamessett Farm Eco-cross and The Plymouth Festival of Cyclocross. Quite the show. I'm glad it's over. We had a great time at Coonamessett, Harpoon supplied beer to lubricate the racers and volunteers alike. Sunday's Plymouth race had a great little kids race, we had 16 kids race in 3 age groups and beyond a pile up in the "older" kids race everything went smooth. The bouncy house definitely gave the parents a break while watching the adults race. One of our masters racers Chad saw his son Carter show glimpses of future sucess nearly winning the 3 lap big kids race after coming back from a first corner crash and a back of the group start.
My brother Bill and his son Adam set up a real pro race with their company International Cycling. If you need crowd control fencing, finish line trusses, or anything related give Adam a call or visit them on the web www.intlcycling.com They'll make your event pro.
So as Toby would say "the hipster tractor pull" is over for this year. We hope to return Coonamessett to a weekend next year so we can draw a few more riders to our event.
All for now.
Cheers,

This has nothing to do with cyclocross, but check out my buddy Kent's take on the perceived risks of kids riding their bikes to school, interesting, and cool video at the end. Someday.
