Sven Nys is the Man

Today was the Sven Nys Grote Prijs in Baal(home of Sven Nys). It was one of the hardest cross races I have ever done. Thick mud with some technical descents and steep drops. Slow thick muddy climbs. A lot of running and huge time gaps. Thijs Al a winner of World Cup last year was over 6 minutes down on Sven. The results might look a little off ..... I finished 29th and 4 laps down according to cyclingnews.com, but I know I beat the dude who was 28th and I saw the sign with 2 laps to go, but thats Belgian racing!
















One more race to go....It's been a tough camp on the equipment and the body. A little bit of a sore throat brewing, but I can definitely make it through one more race. Tomorrow is the race in Sint Niklaas. I'm sure it will be broadcasted live, but I'm not sure where. If you know you should post the link in the comment section.
Time to go advance the laundry....then bed.

Thanks for reading....

Why can't 'cross worlds be in months when I'm working? I should change careers, or donate before I get laid off every winter.

I love the logo on the T-shirt. I gotta get one this year.

Keep it going B, you're the man.
