this weekend saw cross race #2 in the manitoba series. the temps were a little cooler and leaves have started to turn colour so it is definitely starting to feel like cross season. before the formal racing began we started with black tie race in honour of dainel (one of manitoba's stronger racers) and sydney. daniel and sydney showed up at the race for pictures (the ceremony was later in the afternoon) and so that daniel could participate in race which daniel won taking home a tidy sum of money collected from all of those who participated in the race.

following the black tie race it was time for the b race. numbers have picked up from the civic cross and a good group of riders showed up for the b event. the course was fast and and quite the aerobic challenge.

the a race saw one of our larger fields outside of provincials. 45 minute plus 2 was the order of the day and because it was mostly on grass we were all quite out of breath by the end of the race.
