The three amigos plus Grace departed way to early for normal people on Saturday to travel to the wonderful land of Asheville NC for the Biltmore Estate Cyclocross races which just so happened to be the last NCCX events of the season.
Then cyclocross happened, how did it go you ask? It happened much the way cyclocross does.
Some run ups were cleaned some hand ups were taken and given and races were raced. Mostly a sick edit was filmed and edited by Eli.

| Hand up rig for the Pro 1/2 Race |
Between myself, Luke and Eli results ranged from DFL to top 10. But during my DFL race on Saturday I had a moment of glory, on the last lap taking a beer hand-up close to the bottom of the run up a spectator offered to hold my hand-up so that I could ride the run up again, since I had already built up that reputation with the crowd, and then get it back on the return section of course. "Hold ma beer and watch this" was executed to near perfection even returned the empty to the original donors while riding by. If you're not winning, style it!
Sundays race went much much better except for running file treads and crashing a lot! Ended up 15th but was in the lead on the second lap, crashes and fading hard towards the last lap didn't help staying up there. Still a very stoke worthy performance compared to the day before. I am uncertain if it was that the Hometown Mfg orange plaid jersey was a faster of a kit, or the course suited me much better, or the Chinese food Saturday night before attributed to the improvements anyways it was a blast!

Then we came back home and raced "Cyclocross" or something like that.
To be fair TJ won the first race fair and square
More shenanigans shall ensue and be embellished on this silly blog as the season progresses
