It was also my first race with the Specialized TriCross bike that I'd been using for commuting this year. Wow, what an improvement over a retro 90s converted moutainbike I used last year. It worked like a champ.
The weather was beautiful (not really appropriate for a true cross race. The course was lots of fun through the Alpenrose area - up some stairs, up the velodrome side, and a lap in the velodrome.
Finished up at 17th in the rookie class. The extra bonus - the lucky number was 7, so I won a six-pack of Macs.
I put together alittle setup in the backyard to get some practice (here's a photo).
