Cyclocross

[nuts n' bolts]

Does anyone have cyclocross bike pics they want to post? I'm becoming increasingly interested in cyclocross, so if you have any experience, please share. I'm thinking about building a cyclocross bike, either for fun/racing or for everyday riding. I'm imagining something with an older frame and a flat black paint job, maybe some hose clamps, cool handlebars [drop bar-ish?], and various ratrod touches. Please post images or feedback. Thanks.

Does no one here cyclcocross or know anything about cyclocross? Is there some secret hatred for it? Please post something!

Yeah I know I'm about a month late replying to this post... I need to come on here more often.

Cross rocks bro! I've done a handfull of races on my mtn bike and had a blast. Started building up a Soul Cycles cross frame but ran out of steam (money).

My friend Mike builds some killer cross bikes. (He built my mtn bike). http://zanconato.com/ check out the photos and blog.

Your profile says you're from southern NH. I'm from western MA. There are lots of cross races in the northeast. You should check them out this fall. It's addictive.

I've got a lemond poprad disc, it's the bike I grab when I'm late for work.

I just sweetened it up with a brooks saddle
