Another successful Cross Out Cancer event was produced by the
Livestrong Army team this past weekend. Events for a purpose are always nice to support and this cross race does just that raising over 3K last year. Hopefully the team was able to match that amount this year.
Cow Town Cycling had a great showing at the event lead by Rich Barrett stepping up on the podium in the very competitive Men's Cat 3 class. Damian Almanza, John Williams, Robert Tarne, Tim Greene and Chris Locke all put in solid rides. Check out some great actions shots below by Roger Harrison -

This past weekend were the first two races of the Boss Cross series put on by Joe Fox and Jeremy Haynes. The races were held at barry platte park, which offered all the fixin's for a good cross race. The course was run one way on Saturday and the opposite on Sunday. The general assessment was that Sat. was harder, but either way it was a fun yet challenging course that had all the elements, including two desert crossings that would have Moses himself asking for mercy.
d John Williams represented the herd with top tens on either day. looking forward to the next installments of Boss Cross, which are to be held at the Raytown BMX track. Ashley I hope you are reading this.
