So what is cyclocross? From Carrie Cash, Alpine Shop Bike Shop Manager and Team Revolution Member, Cyclocross is a "Fast, "grass-crit" style course that is is much like running a cross country race but you get top pedal and coast. Where else can you ride your bike through a grass maze, dismount and step over steeples and remount to continue grinning from ear to ear as the cowbells ring and the crowd cheers?" Here at Alpine Shop, we'd call that a good time! Getting dirty, riding fast and pushing your physical limits are all a part of this sport that fosters camaraderie and good-natured heckling between competitors and spectators alike.
