Cross Crusade arrived in Bend, OR for Halloween weekend and the dust was flying....The Beermongers were in full effect with the best showing of the year. Tim and Glen held it down in the beginners race and our two ginger buddies are having some serious battles.
As normal we had a huge group of Mongrels in the Cat. C race. However I was unable to post the video right here so look for on Facebook. A strong group of C riders and then Hammerin' Heddy coming from behind with a BLAST of speed. Enjoy the vid.
Karl has bumped himself into the Clydesdale field, well done.
Stroup and I were in the Mster Cs...where you at Ryan? I feel naked without the big Temple to hide behind.
Lots of nice ladies in the ladies race. Kim was killing it, for S&M, in the A's but our Lady Mongers stole the show. By now everyone has seen the 'Shot Ski' photo on CyclingOregonAction but Beth, Alissa and Kelley kicked up the dust like they were ridin' a bull in the Sisters Rodeo.
Jer was absent but apparently Andrew has decided to stick with the Singlespeed and he was our only rider in that Cat. Nick 'Nico' Wagner was on full display, with healed face, in the B race and even though the east-siders thought they could hang with Wags? He BLEW'um UP!
We finished the evening washing down the day's dust with some beers while watching the Clydesdale of the Universe race.
Sunday was another day at Camp Sand...shoot I thought Burning Man was supposed to be Burning?
and of course the costumes.
That last picture is too funny! Crazy animal, Akoo, Alissa with some elfin ears, and Glen looking half malamute, half pimp, half homeless-man with a gnarly looking bare-right-foot.
ReplyDeleteAnd that's my girl Kim - double fisting with a PBR and a six-pack of Anderson Valley.
Nice pics and write-up, TC! You da man!
