My 10 year old son loved his second cyclocross race Saturday at PIR but he couldn't understand why some adult was yelling at him. He messed up in a muddy section and some adult was screaming at him and telling him he was "to slow and needed to go faster". Please know your audience and give the juniors encouragement only. Kids aren't used to complete strangers yelling at them.

I didn't see this happen or I would of said something.
