2014 Bay Area Super Prestige Series Race 6 Master 45A
The Bay Area Super Prestige series finished at the popular Coyote Point venue. Although the coyotes have long since been run out, the racers did their best to roam around in packs, chasing and gnawing on each other’s heals. The course offered up the familiar short steel hill at the start, a new sand section…

2014 Surf City Cyclo-X Series Race 3 Open Singlespeed
The sky finally opened and unleashed the moisture that has been withheld from NorCal for oh so long. And the parched earth drank it up in greedy gulps. Throughout the cyclocross world sighs of joy arose and then chants of ‘There will be mud’. ‘There will be mud’. And mud there was! Feast your eyes…

2014 Bay Area Super Prestige Series – Race 5 Singlespeed A
Here was the second of a two day race weekend for the BASP Series. The weather held out and conditions were great at Candlestick. Rain earlier in the week gave the course tacky conditions with only a few soft spots. Watch the single-speed A racers… or the bad apples in some people’s minds 🙂 More…

The Surf City crew pulled us up on to the top of the mountain to race at the CAL FIRE Training Center. Last year’s race at this venue was dry and dusty! Lucky for us that it rained earlier in the week and the conditions were far better. Still some dust kicking up later in…

2014 NorCal Cyclocross Series – Race 3
The tough Stafford Lake venue in Marin County was the location of the third race of the NCCX series. Murphy didn’t bring out his infamous “Cess Pool of Filth” but he did have his “Belgian Farm Wall”. And then there were the bumpy dirt/grass sections that reminded me of an Oakland city street. Wait, no,…
