Cyclocross racing in Toronto got a big boost with the recent CXTO event in Christie Pits Park this past Saturday. And it was a fun event to cover. Lots of people I know were there, a good turnout of racers and good crowds. I haven’t finished processing my photos yet, in part because there was […]

Subway ‘Cross – Last 2015 CX O-Cup
Today was the final event in the Ontario cyclocross series and it was finally CX weather… cold and snowy. It was also the first course of the year to have enough mud to have an effect on the race! Here’s a small teaser gallery, you can find a larger gallery on my website.
The First Annual VCX
This weekend was filled with great cyclocross action that included the 9th edition of the Barrie Cycling Club’s Baseball ‘Cross plus the first edition of the Vaughan Cyclocross Classic. The Baseball CX has traditionally been a fun shoot as it has a great mud feature. I have to say though, it was a dry course […]
The 2015 Canadian Cyclocross Championships
Winnipeg. Home to the past two editions of the Canadian CX Nats. This year’s version was even better than 2014 too, if that’s possible. They made some minor but significant changes to the course, the weather turned out just a great as the year before, and there were awesome crowds for both days of racing. […]
Clearing My Backlog Part 3 – CX Nats
I posted some of these photos to Facebook and some others are online at PedalMag.com… this is just me getting around to having my blog up to date too. The Canadian national cyclo-cross championships held at the Forks in Winnipeg were amazing. The organizers did an outstanding job and deserve full marks. It was a […]

The Weekend in Video
I mentioned that I used 2 different camera on the weekend in yesterday’s post. I did in fact use another one… the GoPro Hero3 that I’ve started carrying around. So I have 2 videos which line up with the two galleries. The first one from the Hardwood Singletrack Challenge is set to the music of […]
MTB and CX all in the same weekend
Two days, two different races. And I used two different cameras to test all my gear out ahead of the upcoming Canadian Cyclocross National Championships in Winnipeg. For the first race, a mountain bike event called the Singletrack Challenge held at Hardwood Hills north of Toronto, I only used my 7D and primarily with the […]
2013 Cyclocross Season Wrap-up
While I didn’t get to cover much of the cycling season this year I feel like it did end on a high note and I’ll take as a positive sign for the season to come. On top of my own distractions there was also the late-season doping revelations that took some of the fun out […]
A Canadian CX World Champion
I had the pleasure of interviewing a number of people over the course of the week, this one is my personal favourite. Jim Laird won Canada’s only Rainbow Jersey at the CX worlds… in the Masters 60-64 category. I thought that he’s a really nice guy when I met him. But you can decide that […]
Louisville2013: wrapping it up
I’m not quite done sorting photos (about 4500 from today) but I’ve gotten the elite men and women galleries so I’ll take care of the Junior and U23 tomorrow. I’m too tired to be capable of doing a good job, 14 hours today after a string of Masters events has me run down. Still… here […]
