Boss Cross 1 and 2 Location and Course Status

All - for some reason, E.H. Young Park in Riverside MO is not showing up in Google Maps and y'all can't get directions. No worries. Here's a map:

Note that the race is in the park next to the Argosy Casino. If you need more info, feel free to email me.

Now... the course. It's going to be tough, kids. Not balls in yer throat like you're climbing the Angliru like Manion's last week, which was an awesome race by the way. But, this race is for the strong men. Or the rider who is good at running and transitional racing. It's pretty flat, yeah. There's lots of pavement, yeah. But, there's sand (twice), fast barriers (start practicing more!) where I think the race could be won, really, and there's some nasty hills (two or three). The hard men can tear it up on the wide open flats, but the guys who can ride sideways, corner well, and get on and off the bike fast can likely have an advantage... I don't know, but that's what I'm thinking. See you Saturday! and Sunday!
