Roger Harrison sends a letter to the racers in the metro area. A few more notes from Sunday’s CrossLogic event:

Fine fall weather, fast grass, free food….all for the final event of the Mid America Cup. Good fields in all categories swept through E.H. Young Riverfront Park on a grassy course with three running features. At least for most.

Early morning showers softened the ground but failed to turn Welborn Park into a mudfest. However, many riders commented that the Greg Rupp designed course was challenging enough with the twists and turns, offcamber sections and hilly runs. Great food and beverage (provided by the KCOI folks and Boulevard Brewery) enabled all to recover after… Continue reading Boulevard Cup Results
