Patricia Berning sends some more photography from the weekend's Boulevard Cup. The band that kept things lively are "The Frayed Nots." The guy going over the barriers with style is race director Mike Berning.

Margretta DeVries has been keeping track of points for the Series60CX, the promoters are grateful to her for tackling that epic job. Updates are expected in the next day.

This Wednesday is the opportunity to check out the Smithville course for this weekend's double DeStad Series races. More details at the www.kansascitycross.com site.

And from Bill Marshall and Jeremy Haynes: "Now is your chance to pre-ride the 2008 USA Cycling National Cyclocross Championship Course! Just as we did in 2007 we want to give riders a chance to pre-race the course. Mark your calendar for November 1st! Boss Cross will play host to the event at Tiffany Springs Park located in Kansas City, Missouri. We are very excited to preview our new venue. The course is going to offer a wide range of challenges start to finish. Tiffany Springs Park is a perfect Cyclocross venue. You can challenge yourself with some climbing, double track, fast flat sections and many off camber sections. Mother Nature will dictate how different the course is in December though!!! Attached you will find the event flyer for the November 1st event. We will have the course map posted at www.kccrossnationals.com by Friday, October 17th. See you when it's cold!!!"
