Wisconsin Cyclocross Championship

They talked me into it...

Rig with skinny's. Not the ideal setup but I made it out alive.
Joe thanks for the encouragement, I think.


I finally figured out why cross is so much fun!

Check out the video

Another Iceman Cometh & Goeth


Here we go again. I guess 8 hours isn't too long for an awesome race like The Iceman Cometh!

No this isn't an old photo. Imagine our surprise when we awoke to this in Traverse City.

"Room with a view" was definatley not overstated. The resort is really a great place to stay.

Late night stroll into town. The weather held up for nearly the entire weekend.

Jesse couldn't make it which was a super bummer but in case they wanted the brother battle we had a stand in. Hope the LaLonde's win it all next year!



10 and under start. Spot that little Extremer...if you can!


Nice finish. 48min. 55sec. So what does that do for you?

Second Place!


Before...



After!

This is what you look like when you complete the Iceman with half your seatpost and only one pedal. But surprise surprise.


Another Team Extreme second place.


As for me....

I finished...

We'll all be back next year. First class race, accommodations and friends. Anyone looking for an example of "How To" put on a mountain bike race, this is your guide.

Happy Halloween MTB style!






He wanted to be Jesse. Couldn't argue with that.
Special thanks to Mr. Lalonde!


Ready to rock the neighbors.


Ready to rock the singletrack.




Rehydrate...
















By any means necessary!
