Ah, the hump of the cross season- with a little over a month to go, this season has already been full of epic races and 45 minute stints in the pain cave. After races like Granogue and Gloucester, I can tell you that racing tubulars this season has been a huge [...]

It’s taken a good long while, but i think i needed some time to reflect on the race.
Staten CX ripped through NYC on November 30th. Jed, myself, and John put everything into this race and it paid off. I’ve never been prouder to be part of something like this. This whole [...]
The New York Times posted an article and short video on ‘cross in NYC this morning.
To an outsider, waking up at 5AM and braving 20 degree wind chills to practice “getting on your bike, getting off your bike, and running up stairs” might seem a little, ah, weird. But don’t knock it until you try [...]
We’ve had 119 racers preregister for Sunday’s race. Incredible!
Race-day registration is available. Plan to be at the venue a good hour before your race to give yourself enough time to register, maybe ride the course, and complete your archaic stretching and warm up routine.

Listing all [...]

Don’t complain boys … you’ve been getting the good premes since time eternal (since you make the rules). So women: race like your entry fee and round of drinks depend on your first [...]
[Being the superstitious lot, we at Staten CX begged some Blog-Gods to write the official Event Horoscope. Sensing our New York angst, The Unholy Rouleur from DC volunteered to calm our nerves with clear predictions for Sunday, November 30th, 2008. Thanks Jim!]
The good promoters of next week’s ‘Cross race on Staten Island asked me if [...]
Sometimes the stars align. You get the hole shot, you float atop mud while others fall face first, and you beat the teenager half your age and half your size. ‘Cross is typically void of such good luck but on November 30th, 2008 that will change.
Staten CX is witnessing an epic confluence of sport, food, [...]
