Review on the 2009 Whitmore's Landscaping Super Cross Cup Weekend (Event site and Links to results/photos) in Southampton.
Again, a great Cyclocross Event on Long Island with top Elite Riders in the UCI women and men fields, packed with action, speed and a great welcoming atmosphere for riders and spectators. See your self watching the two video clips I cut from some footage and still images I took both days. I tried to catch key sections in still and video sequences in the order of riders encountering them on there laps. Starting out with a flat road sprint, moving over grass, climbing a few challenging steep, short and off-camber grassy turns, hitting part sandy single track in the woods and some enforced dismounts overcoming obstacles sections running -- all within one lap out of about 10..15 laps.

Update: New RP2IPBP ride fall season start time from October is 9am.

What a beautiful day for Py's RP2IPBP ride, a chilly morning. A good sized group found together at Tildas last Saturday, Rocky Point (RP) and rolled out promptly by 8am with the chime of a close by clock tower -- one rider showed up just last minute as we almost attempted to cross the road at Tildas -- little chatting and off we go....
