I'd say story of my life, but now it's my friends dragging me into stupid stuff. Unfortunately, I had family stuff I couldn't miss, so Cedar Cross wasn't one of them. Next year... Great report, and well done in the race! “I don’t have any friends dumb enough to do this with me.” I’d say story of my life, but now it’s my friends dragging me into stupid stuff.

Every time I try them, now, I hate them and go right back to the bullhorns. I know what you mean about the flat bars. Every time I try them, now, I hate them and go right back to the bullhorns.

Yeah, I always have bar-ends with a flat bar. I also used a longer, lower stem, but it still wasn’t the same as drops.

Only a fraction were mountain bikes, and even fewer with 26" wheels. Seems everyone is on 29ers now. Maybe you should make a special trip for it next year.

What a notch to put in your belt! I was reading the latest posts on the Cedar Cross blog, which led me to start reading a commenter's blog. As I started on the commenter's blog, I thought, "Wait a minute! I know who's blog I'd want to read!". Do we know if first place was a mountain biker or cx'er? And for the record, if I was still local, I would have been dumb enough to do this with you :) Good job, Man! What a notch to put in your belt!
