A Canadian CX World Champion

Posted on February 7, 2013December 1, 2014by Peter Kraiker

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

Posted on February 3, 2013December 1, 2014by Peter Kraiker

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 […]

Every Day Seems to be Adventure Filled Here in Louisville

Posted on February 1, 2013December 1, 2014by Peter Kraiker

I’ll file a report from today when I have time. Meanwhile… The organizers and the UCI have taken drastic measure due to impending flood of the venue for CX Worlds. Here’s a link to the UCI communique. Seems the river will rise during the night on Saturday beyond what they feel they can safely hold […]

Wow! Louisville Delivers Big

Posted on February 1, 2013December 1, 2014by Peter Kraiker

The preliminaries are over, the racing is full on. And the weather is still playing its part. The temperature dropped overnight and the morning had snow for some of the races. Perfect CX madness. One note of disappointment: the USACycling.org site really isn’t helping media figure out what’s going on. No useful start lists, no […]

Down to nothing but finals @ Louisville

Posted on January 31, 2013December 1, 2014by Peter Kraiker

All the prep is over, now it’s finals (and a few consolation races). The weather came in as predicted, sirens and PA systems warning everyone that there were tornadoes. And lots of rain and wind. For the CX Master Worlds it meant a beat up course (waterlogged and wind ravaged) that needed a 2 hour […]

Weather Watch in Louisville

Posted on January 30, 2013December 1, 2014by Peter Kraiker

I’ve heard comments about how the Worlds CX course isn’t as challenging as it could be… I suspect the weather over the next couple of days could affect that. I’m not sure I’ve ever heard of a Belgian or European CX Worlds being put under a Tornado watch/warning. The next few hours could dictate how […]

Heading to Louisville…

Posted on January 28, 2013December 1, 2014by Peter Kraiker

I had originally planned to head to Louisville for this coming Friday, to cover the Elite CX races on the weekend. Instead I’m heading down on Tuesday and will be covering the Masters races as well as the Elite. It will be my first time visiting Kentucky too so I’m glad to have almost a […]
