Cyclocross InventionCyclocross has been around for longer than a century. It is a simple idea that gained popularity in Europe. The idea is simple. Take a road bike and ride in the winter through mud, fields, over things and go as far and as rugged as you can. It sure beats sitting inside and not doing anything.Lots of people stop riding their bikes in the winter. It's cold and muddy outside and who wants to deal with that? It does take a special kind of person to love the sport. It's more exciting to see how you can go around and tackle obstacles than to simply ride on flat pavement. You can tell the good riders from the bad. The bad ones simply fall down a lot and the good ones manage to jump, kick, run, or flip out of harms way. |
