Reminder of tonight's cyclocross practice/clinic at 6pm. Cyclocross is a great cross-over sport for road cyclists, triathletes and mountain bikers. Cyclocross combines the speed work of road, running, and bike handling skills of mountain biking. Both Pro Road and Pro MTB riders compete in cyclocross with equal success. So come out and give it a try.<div>
<br></div><div>Please meet at the baseball field at South Side park. To get there from campus, go down Richland Avenue over the bridge and make a right onto Dairy lane. Then about a 1/4 mile down the road, make a right turn onto the concrete road.</div>
<div><br></div><div>We will be working on basic skills, mainly dismounts and remounts. If you do not have a cyclocross bike, a mountain bike will work.The only equipment restriction for most cyclocross races is no bar ends. There are a few more restrictions if you plan on racing the UCI Elite level but you can ask if that may apply to you. Many people compete in cyclocross with a mountain bike, so no worries. For today, you can possibly get away with a road bike if you change your pedals to flats or mtb clipless.</div>
