Crazy cross

Round 2 of Dirty Deeds CX was held at Jackson Reserve at Coburg today.  CX is a killer, so hard, that half hour of racing feels like a 3 hr sprint running session to me.

The course today was longer than last time, the climbs were off camber and longer than Darebin and the whole lot was incredibly muddy and slippery.

My gearing was way too hard.  I was spinning or grinding the whole way around, even on the flat.

My lower back and knee started to hurt from the effort of grinding but they seem to be alright now.

I love CX, it's tough, but it is so much fun.  The people are lovely and I'm making some great new friends.
