If you don't have a kettlebell or Dumbell use something heavy like a rock in a sack/bag. If this doesn't work, substitute situps (full good ones) for the KB swings and substitute Push ups for the pullups.

Photos from Bend!

Hi Guys, Here are some photos from the Cyclocross Nationals race up in Bend Oregon last week. The course got muddy but it was perfect for CX racing! My best finish was 6th in the Singlespeed race. Next year is in Wisconsin in January. Brrr!

Above: a photo of the course. There were some big mud sections.

Above: Haley on the first lap looking clean.

One of the run ups.
