Diamond Blackfan CX

Aaaahhhhh! FINALLY, cyclocross season begins!!! Now we need the weather to come around. It felt great to get out on the grass, gravel, sand, and... wooden bridges? Well, anything goes. Awesome course but I hated the cowtown barriers- but whoever placed those should be proud-brutal.

I got 3rd in the 3/4 race and Joe A. scored a podium spot in the Masters. Eric looked strongest of many teamates in the 4 race and landed in at 10. Man, that was a huge field! Cross is here to stay I guess.

I was so happy to see all my mates out to race. I was afraid that Colavita might fade into the shadows come cross season but that's just not gonna happen. I'm so fired up right now I don't know if I'll sleep.

Much love to all those yelling and making noise. At some races, your friends are lined up just right around the course so that every time you really need some help, they're there. Today was like that.
