There aren’t too many words that come to mind that properly recap this past weekend, except two: thank you. Thank you L.A. for hosting such a kick-ass weekend. Thank you everyone who flew from afar, drove many miles and stayed up late into the night to help, race, cheer, drink, put together a costume, heckle and ring a cowbell in the name of singlespeed cyclocrossers everywhere. Thank you to sponsors who kicked down dollars or donated prizes to help sweeten the pot — with particular shoutouts to the strong support of Cedar Cycling, Kuat Racks and Giro. Thank you Dot, Jeff and the SoCal Cross crew for inviting us to share your venue and working hand-in-hand with us through the process.
As the pictures and stories pour in, we can’t thank you – EVERYONE – enough. That you had an amazing time means everything to us. It’s what made it an amazing time for us. Except…”amazing”… simply doesn’t do it justice. We’ll let the pictures do the talking from here.
We also have two words for Philly: your turn.
Love always,
Murphy, Emily, Paule, Dennis, Zach, Jason, Slonie, Matt and Meredith (Mo)
Your SSCXWC 2012 crew
