State Champs Course

In Utah Cyclocross we seem to have an abundance of flat crit style courses which are fun and provide some exciting racing. That said I am totally stoked to have the State Championships on a killer new course. The Mt Ogden Golf Course has tons of classic cross elements. Lots of grass, some pavement, technical descents and a leg breaking climb. Whoever wins on this course will truly be the strongest, team tactics wont be a factor at all.

A few twists and turns aside this video below gives a good representation of what to expect on Saturday. I rode with Jason Sager and Matt Ohran last night, we all agree this will be a classic course. Be ready to dig deep. No one is gonna fake their way around this circuit.

There can be only one…

    There can be only one … in each category.

    In our case, that means “There will be sixteen … unless C categories are excluded, in which case there will be thirteen.”

    Rico when you go through the white fence after the long grass start it goes up. The next 4 minutes of the recording is up. Some of it really steep. The last half is down with a couple shorter ups. Should be a great course.

    The “there will be 16″ quote is really funny….

    where are the logs and single track? Spiral of DEATH?

    I am digging the cross bikes out of the basement. As long as it isn’t to wet or cold I will be there.

    Congrats on the win today Art! Between you and Tim, I would say that it was a good day for the Big Ring.
