Despite the rain last night, it was about perfect for the cross race today at Discovery Park in Sacramento. The park was a big, flat, grassy park with little to no climbing on the course.
The main challenges (according to the riders) were the tough handling in lots of switchbacks and chicanes, and a very treacherous tunnel that went from one half of the park to the other - it was filled with slippery mud, lots of sliding, long grass sections and both Bob and Alex crashed in it.
Overall, it was all about the boys again:
Isaiah Rapko - First Place
Bjorn Fox - Second Place
Spence Peterson - Third Place
Alex Howard - Fourth Place (including a crash) Bob Siegel - Fifth Place (including a crash AND a flat)
Blair Peterson also raced with the Big Dogs - Men's A class, including Ned Overend! He did great, and really hammered out a strong performance!
