Cannondale St?mptown Cyclocross Classic
USGP of Cyclocross
Cyclocross Crusade Series Race #2
Saturday October 8, 2005
Alpenrose Dairy, Portland
A modern day Icarus with cup of delicious darkly hot brew in hand to greet the day as the first fingered stabbings of dawn make their way through hazy, lazy misty wisps. Glittering bejeweled tributes to disposable income soon to be splattered into muddy skeletons of magic metals and composites...one ultimately indistinguishable from the other...mud becomes the mechanism of equality...
