Nordic Cross report

A small but enthusiastic group came to the Bike, Drink and be Wary Nordic Cross race. Dan, Jeff, Giles and I started the race and Mike joined in two laps down. The Biking consisted of riding as many laps of a route at West Park School. A lap took about 2.5 minutes and covered the perimeter, the dirt hump, the long-jump sand pit, noodling around trees and on the cement pad. The Drink portion allowed riders to earn a lap for any carbonated beverage consumed. The Wary was not heeded by Mike who ripped his pants riding through the sand pit, and Giles who fell twice in the sand, one time over his handlebars breaking a spoke in the process. I completed the most laps (and drank a beer) for the win, followed by Jeff, Giles, Dan and Mike who were drinkless in the loss (a shame). Good times.

If anybody is looking for a fun ride, the local motox track is awesome. They've dug out a bigger pond and used the dirt for some massive track improvements. The kids track is fun too but the adult course is packed and ready for bicycle fun. I highly recommend giving it a spin. JS
