CX with Hollie
AAVC CX Scholarship winner Hollie got off to a great start in her first cyclocross race a few weeks ago at Crank Cross. Here’s a little more on how things went..
My first CX race was a lot of fun! The weather was chilly in the morning, and warmed up by the start of my races. Racing weather was perfect!
Prior to racing Crank Cross, I was a little nervous about bike handling and pacing during the race. In particular, I was worried about the huge hill which was integrated into the course. The sand pit and section of off-camber, downhill turns were also tough. While those sections were challenging, I was surprised how much easier handling got with every lap. Through this race experience, I gained confidence with picking lines through corners.
I loved the energy of the spectators and the athletes were all super supportive and friendly. I got bitten by the “CX bug”, and am excited to compete in more CX races in the future!!
