How about a mid-week cyclocross race??? Crosstoberfest will be next Weds, 10/29, in Raynham and has a beginner race for men and women, a kids race and a short track mountain bike race, too. Plus a beer tent! All races will be under lights but for anyone wanting to do the mountain bike race you need to wear a headlamp, too. The women's beginner race is at 6pm, men's race is at 7pm. Getting there by 5pm would be ideal to get a chance to ride the course before the racing starts. This being "the year of the experience" (sort of a new year's resolution kinda thing) I'm game for giving cyclocross a try even though I'm in no biking shape whatsoevet. Any other takers? The cost is $30. Here's the website for more info: www.rockhardracing.com/events/crosstoberfest-ma/

I'd love to do a cross race! Its so silly. I'm not sure I can swing the mid-week. Is there a reason you picked this one?

I picked this one for 2 reasons.
One is because I know the guy organizing it. He runs a bike shop near the race and he's provided bike support at Patriot... he also gets a booth at my expo, recruits his team to race the Whaling City Tri and is an all-around good guy.
The other reason, which is just as important, is I like the mid-week timing. Our weekends tend to be so busy with other stuff it can be a challenge for me to get away (as my attendance at weekend team events shows). I know that's not the case for everyone but hoping you and others can swing it.
