CXs and Os |Episode 4
On the latest CXs and Os, we are looking at a feature that is too often taken for granted, the good ol’ planks. At the first round of the 2020 Cyclocross World Cup in Tabor, the planks were set up on the top of a rise, with a fast approach, and a limited space between the two barriers. This placement made it my favorite kind of feature: One that amplified skill level, for better or worse. If you are confident at riding planks and have this particular set dialed, it was a huge advantage. If you were not so confident and figuring it out lap by lap, you risked losing a few spots in the standings or even crashing.
Give it a watch and let us know your take in the comments. If you have a feature that you think deserves the CXs and Os treatment, let us know that, too. Also, please share with your friends and help us grow the CXHAIRS Bulletin family.
Thanks for watching, cyclocross friends.
