Last year Andrew and I put together a CX budget really not knowing what that meant, where it would actually take us, or whether it was enough money or way too much money. We brought our Google Doc into the Pony Shop, and they made our season happen – even though we previously had no … More PSCX Team Looking for Sponsors for 2018
Brief Introduction by Lily I can’t tell you how many times this season people said: “That team with the cool fork!” “You’re doing great *heckle* awesome fork.” “Ohhh I think I remember you by your fork!” That’s all. Other words by Andrew. 2017 Cannondale Super X – Force 1 Size: 54cm Stem: Zipp Service Course … More Cannondale SuperX CX Bike Profile and Review
Saturday, Day 1 Hi @dani_mariea ! Check out the new Bike Index caps on their Shopify page. Now proven effective for any riding conditions. The amount of times I missed my bars when shouldering this bike in the mud this weekend was a lot. Something to work on – the little mistakes can add up. … More A muddy Major Taylor CX, Photos by Ethan Glading
It’s Sunday night. You’re considering watching some show on Netflix that you kind of hate, and the $9 wine is open. Turn off the TV and instead, spend a mere 90 minutes listening to our first two interviews of the PSCX podcast series. Better yet, the interviews are each with a different Eric! In part … More Episode 4 part 1 and 2!

It’s nice to have some results to back up your ‘pro’ designation, but unlike road, UCI racing isn’t restricted to just UCI teams. The other most legitimately excellent thing about … More What sponsorship means and why we choose Bike Index
If you’ve ever raced a bike in the Midwest – nay, the U.S. – there is a chance you have seen a photo from Ethan Glading, or his alias, @thepenultimatestage. Ethan takes some nice photos and is also a really nice person. We were fortunate enough to have him capture some moments of our races … More Derby City Cup, photos by Ethan Glading
Andrew and I’s (hi this is Lily) first time at DCCX was a (sand) blast. While the hot, dry conditions weren’t those cool fall ones we would normally hope for in Chicago at this time of year, they were great in that they made an otherwise not particularly technical course a good challenge. Off-camber sections … More DCCX Photos by Bruce Buckley
At some point in the nascent life of my endurance athleticism, this new thing started popping up everywhere. This object, which seemingly began trending overnight, was often associated with college boys in cut-off tanks and a distinct rattling noise. This object was the blender bottle. Wtf is a blender bottle, and is it dishwasher safe? … More Literally just use CarboRocket
In what is arguably the most mature, yet also most immature podcast we’ve had thus far, we discuss our third race weekend of the season: Charm City CX in Baltimore, MD. Listen for information on flyovers, sand, how (not) to pace a CX race, and Maryland crabs. Oh, and The Wire. Don’t listen if you … More Episode 3: Charm City CX
Here is our second podcast. It’s a little shorter than the first, so we’re getting better about adhering to our 30 minute rule. We’ve left the homeland of the Midwest after two great weeks of racing, and are back in the other homeland of NC for awhile. We’ll be taking a break from racing this … More Episode 2: Trek
