More Updates

First Sponsor Announced:
www.frfsports.co.nz
:thumbsup:
These guys bring in some seriously great product so am stoked to have them on board.

Price Added:
$15


Test rode part of course on new CX bike, and was a lot of fun. Would suggest those looking at seriously competing, practice a little bit of shouldering your bike and running with it. Oh and also practice getting back on quickly as that can be painful when you get it wrong :cry:

Working on entry form at the moment however my Photoshop/illustrator skills are somewhat....uh.....lacking :(

In true cyclocross style, if I manage to make it I might have to rip out the skinsuit :paranoid:

Gotta find a suitable frame first. Any ideas? I'm a student so pre loved rather than new

Garage sales. Or dumpsters. Or second hand shops.

Full team lycra with arm and leg armers, shoecovers, and earmuff?

Entry form now up.
Here

Planning and scheming taking place on track design at the moment

Have heard word that Jeff at Kiwibikes in Rotorua has been doing a couple of cantilever conversions on old road frames for some people. A good place to start if you have an old winter trainer bike that will fit some wider tires.

Ooohh, a set of mimo's would be nice. If I make it to race day I'll be on my fat mtb tyres, no coin for cross tyres at the mo'.

Shouldering my 12kg 'CX' beast sounds like a lot of fun... still with strong commitment of 9 confirmed riders I should still be able to make the top 10, if I finish.

Will format be ~1hr with bell-lap or fixed distance/time? Not gonna go all secret on us like the SS Champs are you?
