BSS - Commit to CX 08/24/2021

BSS - Commit to CX Update on how I'm feeling and posting this show from April of 2020 that was posted on Cyclocross Today! It’s a show about the more subtle and amusing aspects of the world of Cyclocross. What are the lengths that we all go to for this sport that we love. Today’s show Commit to CX has 2 chapters that explore people heading off to participate in this crazy sport….and they do it largely on the faith that others will come through for them and things will work out; and in both cases they do. It’s a testament to how our sport takes care of it’s own. Music on this show comes from Incompetech website. To find it simply follow the links below.

Preview - No Training Wheels 05/11/2020

Preview - No Training Wheels As Steve Cullen of ButcherBox eloquently put it back in Episode 21, criteriums are America, they are the ultimate test of racers, machines, and teams. They are also a style of racing that lends well toward modern cycling media and with a huge fan engagement both at the event and remotely, the crit could quite possibly be the way forward for road racing in America. If we let it. And we see no reason why not, so we dive in with Scott Morris of USA Crits to talk about the league that he and others are working to create— a legitimate professional criterium league complete with standards, expectations, and savvy marketing.
