Well, Gary and I loaded into the van early Sunday morning and headed down to Calgary for the cyclocross race at the Calgary Olympic Park. It rained almost the whole way down and we were constantly looking ahead, hey maybe the clouds are less dark up there!
Turned out not to rain while the races were happening, but that did not stop the course from being a little slick, and it did not seem to really dry up as the day went on.
Gary ended up in 22nd spot with some ridiculously fast guys up front lapping almost half of the field.
Cory was lapped as well not doing so great on all the off-camber corners and very long sandpit. The only time I really made time was on the paved climbs, but that was not enough to keep ahead of the great pace set by Ryan Hopping. He rode away from the front of the group and pretty much led for the entire race. Good to see Ryan doing so well.
I had a chance to snap a couple pics in the morning, but not many turned out. The kinda neat blurring effect is not on purpose, my camera is just not that good.
Hope to see everyone this weekend in Devon for our cross race. Should have good weather and an interesting course for everyone!
