Thanks for putting on another great race. I think the decision to reverse the traditional course made things very interesting. A great mix of terrain, technical features, and power sections. One of my favorite races in the series.
It’s too bad that very few people use the pics, vids, and race reports page anymore due to it’s being buried in the depths of the ccc website. Seems like it would be an easy fix to make the page more visible. Just a minor suggestion. Hopefully constructive suggestions are welcomed by the ccc. I appreciate this series that I’ve been fortunate to ride in for quite a few years now.
We just moved the pics/vids/reports post to the front page and we’re working on a permanent fix. Sorry about that. We wish more people would use these posts too.
We always welcome constructive criticism. Thanks for racing!
Thank you all for joining us at Campton Cross, and a special thanks to all the volunteers, officials, CCC directors, Kenny, course helpers, Bicycle Heaven/Psimet/ABD, and all the rest who had a hand in putting on the event. Alien vs Predator & Prince are in a league of their own. They are like Isaac Neff in a 1/2/3 CCC field. There were so many great costumes, and just like past years it was REALLY hard to pick a winner. The prize went to the sloth this year, and to someone who hasn’t won in the past. Sometimes playing the part is just as important as the garb. As the slowest mammal on the planet the sloth would ride up to the barrier and sloooowwwly climb up and over it. Classic.
Thank you. Quite the compliment from you! I am not confused, there is a difference between skill and luck. I get lucky with some shots. Thank you for supporting bike racing the way you do. Love your work
Looks like a nice twist on the original course design this year. Wish I could have been there. Went down to Cincy CX this year if anybody wants to watch a lap of the first day at Devou Park. Most demanding course I’ve ever raced. Highly recommended.

Another one from the 4’s coming later this week!
Mid-pack action from the Men’s Cat 3

I lined up next to Prince for the Cat 1/2/3 race as he played Let’s Go Crazy at the start line
https://youtu.be/BlRuAj_FPnk
Jump forward to 3:50 (https://youtu.be/BlRuAj_FPnk?t=3m50s) as he catches and passes me.
That was goddamn hilarious when he started playing that right after the official said “sometime in the next 30 seconds…”
M123’s on board with Peter Kelley. Great video of some of the fastest guys in the region: http://www.trainingbiblecycling.com/on-board-with-peter-kelley-at-camptoncx-2016/
That Dukky is a classy guy!
