Bamacross #1 Avondale

The first race of the Bamacross season was on October 5th at Avondale Park in Birmingham. The BBC Team did a great job of setting-up and running all the races. The stairs up the amphitheater was a killer...over and over again. For those who did 2 races must have relished the pain in deed.

Well once again Jeff and Carl represented the Cycle Escape Team, with both of racing in the Master 45+ category. This was 45 minutes of extreme cycling fun that only comes with cyclocross. Neither one of us performed well enough to make the front page of the Montgomery Advertiser, lucky for me that my chain kept falling off to give me a ready-made excuse.

We did have the pleasure of socializing with many of our good buddies on the Chain Reaction Team, as well as running into a couple guys from Montgomery. Part of the fun of racing is socializing with the other racers from current and past years.

The West family shared some photos with us that Beverly took, so we give here the credit.
