b'Cyclocross Crusade Finale - There Will Be Mud
\\n
\\nHillsboro, Ore. \\u2013 The final race of the Season for River City Bicycle\\u2019s Cyclocross Crusade earned double points for the riders and you could tell by the way they were racing. Both the women\\u2019s and men\\u2019s category A races were very competitive with several lead changes each.
\\n
\\nIt was a fast and level course at the Washington County Fairgrounds but water from last weeks rain created a monster-slog section through the rodeo arena. I was able to cover the entire course on my bike and decided to ditch the tripod for the Men\\u2019s race and really concentrate on following the leaders as much as possible.
\\n
\\nI pieced that footage together to create start-to-finish race video of the Men\\u2019s category A race and I\\u2019m interested to hear what you think about this type of coverage. Please make a comment on the video.
\\n
\\nI want to thank River City Bicycles for sponsoring this video (not to mention being the title sponsor for this series and owner Dave Guettler came up with the title of the song for this video). My eternal gratitude and respect goes out to the Cyclocross Crusade promoters, sponsors, and all the officials from the Oregon Bicycle Racing Association.
