Chimney Rock CX practice (wednesdays)

Just so's I'm sure, this is at the ballfields on Chimney Rock Road between Gilbride and Loft? (I'm easily distracted - that's why I like 'cross. Short courses.)
 
I'm the keeper of the trails, not the grass. I thought cross races where only held in perfect conditions. So far it's only drizzling, so we're good as of now.

Yes it is. Jim sets up shop behind the basketball court. At least last year he did...
 
Yeah sons. It's totally game on!! I feel it only appropriate the first session is held in the rain😀

Head all the way to the back of the ball field lot. You should be able to find us pretty easily, listen for the squeaky brakes.

Thanks to all that braved the wet weather to play tonight. Felt very nice to be back on the cyclocross bike. Hope everyone had a good time😀

-Jim.
 
I didn't make this practice but I did see you guys getting ready as I passed by on my commute home @ 6:25pm. It was raining pretty decent and I wanted to ride home incase it got any worse.

Hope the practice was a good one and I'll definitely be out there in the coming weeks - it's gonna suck a little having to commute on cross tires but it will be worth it.
 
I was on the way...unfortunately the rain, thunder and lightning made the DRIVE difficult. It's easier to ride than to try to drive around the roads of NJ in inclement weather.

Hope to be there next week!

sounds like a big showing will be in attendance next week. this will be the second time i attempt to go over a real CX barrier. the first time was during my first CX race 😛
 
If anybody wants to bring their mtb too... I may start my rides from this lot, and be back in time for cx practice. 2 for 1!

Swap the tires and join me for my commute home!

I guess I'll be swapping back to Cross tires over the weekend so I can join this practice. Hopefully the weather holds out next week.
 
The more the merrier and the wetter the better😀

Oh wait, we're talking about cross still right? Scratch that. No wait again, don't. Keep that, it still fits.

-Jim.
 
Wednesday bump. Weather looks great!! Gonna be a fun night, come out and get yer cross on. As per Norm's suggestion I'll be building a super dumb barrier section that will hopefully come in handy later in the season😀

Itinerary. High-speed and low-speed barrier technique. Run-up drills. Then we'll jump into 2x20 minute heats.

Official start is 6:30 but I'll be down there a little early to set-up...

-Jim.
