The annual Cyclocross National Championships were held here about
15 minutes
from my home over the last 4 days. They got really lucky! The
course was
quite muddy from melted snow early in the week, the amount of
practice was
severely restricted to preserve the course. But a strong south wind
warmed
things up and dried it out. So the racing was pretty much ideal
conditions.
I officiated one of these 4-5 years ago in bitterly cold
temperatures, this
was much more benign. This morning it was about 60°F, wind shifted
to out of
the north, down to 30°F by mid-day, currently is at 12°F and still
headed
down! My wife and I had only time for a few hours yesterday
afternoon - a
small selection of shots here.

Some nice shots, but awful conditions for Cyclocross which is properly
practiced in the mud and snow.
Yeah! Where's the mud, the blood, the tears?
Nice shots nonetheless... : )
