Monster Cross Course Recce

It was a wintry day in Chesterfield, VA. Temps were in the low 30's. A mix of snow and sleet was falling between the bare trees that surrounded the muddy cyclocross course. If you were dumb enough to be out in this weather at Pocahontas State Park, you would have seen two Team CHUNK riders laboriously trying to make up for failed race preparation by getting a sneak peek of the Monster Cross course. That's right. The smell of mud and embrocation was in the air.
If you blinked you would have missed us. We intended to ride 26 miles, but dadgum it was cold! We only lasted about 8, but we looked good doing it! Definitely excited for next week's race. Chuck is riding in the 40+ division and Erin will ride the 26-mile route. Come out to watch us and the other Team CHUNK riders crush it at Monster Cross 2012!
