Koksijde World Cup last Saturday

Going into the race, I knew I was finally coming onto some real fitness based on my last two races.  Unfortunately, the concept that evil always balances out good applied in this case and my race was a bust.
It was a real bummer - no pun intended. To fully understand the pun,  CLICK HERE for the details of my trip posted on CYCLOCROSS Magazine.

And while you are on the site, DO check out CYCLOCROSS Magazine's Fantasy Cyclocross.  You'll see that I'm presently on top of the leaderboard - not a small feat considering there are 340 teams!  I even chose myself for the team!! It may be silly to be excited about it but I AM!

Thanks for reading!

a pro cross rider and a columnist for CX magazine... and somehow at the head of the leaderboard of THE competition of the year???

Something is going on i tell ya. insider trading, match fixing, call it what you will! :)

I'm coming in at 100 and plus something, not far behind Georgia Gould, which obviously is that place that every male rider wants to be :)

Hey Christine!

hey chris
oddly enough 3 of the top 4 folks on the fantasy CX list are employees of CX magazine - jake sisson is 2nd and Andrew Yee (head guy at cx mag) is 4th. I guess you can say we know our stuff. haha. Good thing i am not a male rider because georgia gould is not my type. haha

Another great article Christine. That is also a good photo of Jonas. That one is a keeper. Best of luck out there.

That photo of a Peanut launching onto a rolling bike looks insane! BTW: Jonas looks like some kinda supermodel in the CX Mag photo.

So how is Christmas different in Belgium from the US Christine?

Whatever, I hope you and Jonas have a great one, and very best wishes for 2010!

christmas is not as big of a deal here. Kids have their own christmas i think 6 december which really makes the 25 dec a lot smaller.
