Ottos Cross Practice

I just cross bike, I mean gravel bike. Too bad I'm mostly back in the office full time 70 miles away.

This was a great time for the couple times I attended in the past. Grind and burn.

Bring your hardtails for a serious workout
 
Are there folks going tonight? Somewhat on the way home from Princeton to Flanders and if I can get out of work on time....
 
Great job to the folks who set-up the cross course at Ottos Farm. Great fun, riders of all ages. I only managed 1 lap per race, but still had fun.

Is this going to be back for 2025? I missed it last year and am getting the itch now that August is here.

i've participated a couple times.
The last time I went OTB and ended my season before the first race of the season.
Which ended my 4 race CX career.

I did eat the donut w/o touching it tho, maybe from Round Eric

With the days getting shorter is this still a 6pm start with lights or has it moved earlier?

Thanks Robin for the update - I managed to make it there with just a couple minutes to spare and got to do the first session and 1 lap of the second before I had to bail for a commitment. Dan continues to impress me with the creative use of the space there and does an amazing job in keeping the course fresh and fun.

For anyone thinking about doing a Wed World's at Otto Farm - Do it!
