Here's sort of a photo review, if you were at the races and don't see a photo here just click on one and it'll take you to my Flickr page.
The runup: there was a really steep runup that was ridden by a select few. The mantastic athletes of Team Bearclaw were among them.
Here's video of the runup. Tony Cruz (Discovery Channel) is hot on my heels... I was barely able to beat him despite the fact that A: cyclocross is not his specialty, and B: I'm guessing he rode about 30 hours in the week leading up to this race. Strong.
I believe he'll ride for BMC next year.

I wish I could say the chasing lasted a while. You were motoring, man!
There are three things about this post I love.
1. The Man-tastic mustache! Magnum, P.I., wants one that manly.
2. The H-U-G-E fanny pack on Alex. Did he fit a six-pack of Stroh's in the can in the fridge that was in that pack?
3. That incredibly smooth cash withdrawal on the top of the climb. That, I repeat, THAT is sa-weet.
Thanks Thump, I guess we appreciate the same things in life.
The best part of the trip was not documented, possibly for the better.
Having said that, I would give anything for video footage of the evening before Sundays race.
