I have fallen in love with photographing CycloCross.
It is fast, furious, hard, muddy, intense and addictive.
It is also great winter training for triathletes and of
course another reason to buy a new bike!
Race are generally 1 hour in duration and involve
riding and on occasion running with you bike over unrideable sections.
The top riders will have at least 2 bikes and a support
crew as they can get so clogged up with mud. There
is a pit area where you ride into and swap your bike
over for the crew to clean before swapping again later
on.
