YOU CAN BET SOMEBODY YOU KNOW, SOMEWHERE, SOMEHOW IN SOME WAY, RACED CROSS THIS WEEKEND

Sarah McIntyre, Laura "Cupcake" Melendez (with Hecklehorn),  and Adam McIntrye watching a Stomach of Anger Race, Lansing Michigan, September 2011. Photographer unknown.

I think this is one of my favorite cyclocross race photos of all time. The funny thing is there's no racing going on it that you can see. It's just three friends standing at the side of the course each taking in the race in their own way. I don't know who took this, but it's fantastic.

While there was no racing in this photo, there was plenty going on elsewhere. Great race and fabulous course in Munson. It was hard, it was fun, it was scary, it was a total blast to ride under the lights. Anyway I'm on the road again and hope to be back within in a day or two with photos of all the action this weekend from here and from there. Right now all I can tell you - Slayer aka Jeff Haney "slayed" it this weekend. Also Big Mac, pictured above in a less angry mood than you will find him in during a race, also crushed it on both sides of the state.

But more later, and hopefully we'll have some photos of all the action.
