Kirkland (aka His Father was a Mudder! His Mother was a Mudder!)



A true Mudders delight at Kirkland this past Sunday.  While maybe not the muddiest CX event in memory according to a few vets, it certainly made the top 5 list of many.  In some regards it was a bit of a surprise considering this was the first 'cross race of the year for most when, aside from some wet grass from the morning dew, things are generally relatively dry in mid/early Sept.

Even more evident than the mud was the number of Ommegangsters there to taste some 'cross.  Around 15 of the gang showed up to race with a handful trying their hand at 2 races.   The results sheet shows a number of Ommegangster podium spots across varying categories with many showing some real nice results considering the size & depth of the fields.  Props also go out to Syracuse Bicycle's Trish D for her win at her first CX event as well as a nod to Stuey F (son of Ommegangster Ray F) for his win in a jr. category.

Hope to see folks at Critz Farms for some unique CXish type action this Sat.  The bonus/incentive (besides a great grassroots event) is they are officially opening their tasting room for the Harvest Moon Cidery!
