There are CRUSADA sanctioned methods to meet the Clyde weight requirement
that involve USDA approved Bacon and Ham Steaks via duct tape (and other
possibilities). Of course this is not OBRA sanctioned and probably frowned
upon by the GP, Psycho and other CX series.
As and added incentive to bring more diversity into the CX ranks maybe
"America's Lightest Gainer" could be a new Cat.? An idea might be a 20%
body weight gain from previous weeks race. Although Mike... I remember the
call of the Clydes was... "Trample. Trample. Trample." Pony Clydes would
need to be careful on the course.
Much to think about at the Rules Meeting.
The smell of Bacon being grilled wafting across the course in "Tent Row" is
quite a treat. It also reminds us how much commitment is required for a
Clyde to stay at top racing weight. They are a special breed.
