Cross Crusade #2: Rainer (and Mom's first Cx race!)

Last weekend was the second cross crusade race of the season. It was my mom's first cx race ever, and my first race as an A! Thor raced too - with a much better outcome than last time (not the cluster of mechanicals that he had last week). Here are some photos from the races.

Thor running up a slippery off camber section.

Thor - headed downhill.

The pictures of mom's race are a bit out of order - this is actually the last shot I took of her on the course.

Remounting the bike on the first lap!

Coming up the same off camber section as Thor.

Smiling, and clean, before the race.

Thor - running a set of barriers half way through his race.

A picture of the truck from pdxcross.com - We carpooled out to the race with my mom, and friend Laurie - so we maxed out the bed of the truck!

You can see a neat picture of my mom on the BikePortland.org website here

And here's a video from the race!
