Cyclocross!

The Saturday before Halloween Justin last minute entered his first Cyclocross race. He was excited because he just bought a new Cyclocross bike (this makes like 6 bikes in our house now) mostly for commuting in the winter so he thought he would try it out for its intended purpose. He dressed as Cookie Monster for Halloween.

Anyway! The race was going really well. Towards the very end he was in 2nd place and got ready to sprint ahead to finish first, but slipped in the mud and fell over. Another rider passed him so he grabbed his bike and ran (instead of biked) to finish 3rd!

Not too bad for his first race ever! So proud of my very athletic husband for his success!
