Mtb Road Bike

ROADWORK: The Road Commission for Oakland County said resurfacing of Orchard Lake Road between 12 Mile and 13 Mile is to begin Monday. The project will cut the road to one lane each way through Aug. 20. Also, resurfacing of White Lake Road between Clement and Dixie Highway is to begin Monday, the commission said. That project is expected to wrap up around Aug. 15.

Cyclocross is my favorite bike racing discipline. I like it for a lot of reasons but now that I’m 45 I like it most because the races are short. You don’t have to train 20 hours a week to feel like you can go race and do OK. You don’t have to worry about getting dropped and languishing on the road in solitude and you don’t have to worry about the tent being folded up and gone when you finally make it back to the start/finish. Cross is also very tough.

Your typical cross race is a one hour pain contest. You get dressed in freezing weather (at least in MT you do) or you may race in rain, mud or snow. When you race cross you have to execute run-ups and hurdles which require a dismount and remount onto the bike. These are skills that can really give a person and advantage if they practice their technique. I was never very fast so when I was racing a lot I always tried to make up for my lack of speed and talent with any advantages I could. In road racing it was strategy and decision  making, in cross it was technique and in MTB…well, in MTB I always just sucked.

Does anyone have one of these? I just heard they have a new bike thats cross between a mtn bike and road bike ....? How these up and what is the purpose really? Im just curious.

Bob suggested that cyclo-cross, but you may think of hybrid bikes. Their goal is to appeal to casual riders who do not know what they want.

You might think a cyclocross bike. They are like a bicycle road race, but have studded tires for dirt.
