🚴🏼‍♂️ 7 Pieces of (Cheap!) Cyclocross Gear You Need This Season

One of our favorite pieces to write and rewrite every year: Cyclocross has a ton of necessary gear for racing, but we’re all about the little things that can make your race go smoother by keeping you warm and dry beforehand, then clean and warm (from body to bike to car) afterwards… and with back to back days of racing, getting shoes dry fast is always a plus!

Every year, we field new CX questions, and in this episode, we covered transitions from road/MTB to CX, dismount and remount troubleshooting, the running debate on running, and what skill really needs the most work…plus our best tips for new racers!
