It snows.

We battle.

We win.

We hula hoop some fresh carbon tubular rims.

…but desperate times call for desperate measures, and all that good stuff. With a heart full passion, a boombox, and a wetsuit, our own Steven Hunter sets off to find a piece of the elusive Cross Crusade Grail.

Incidentally, all top three photos were taken at the 2006 USGP in Hillsboro, Oregon. It was an epic day for all. A huge thanks to everyone who submitted photos, and to Star Crossed and CX Magazine. We’re going to run the contest again in October with some exciting sponsors and prizes, so stay tuned.

Here’s some of the latest submissions to the photo contest. We’re up to 26 photos from 10 different contributors! To the left is Ira Ryan. Frame builder, endurance racer, and A+ man. He also sponsors a cyclocross team, and builds a darn pretty cross bike. Ira went with me on my first ever Oregon MTB ride where we piled into a super sketchy van, drove to Scapoosse, and got covered in stinging nettle. High fives on gravel roads forever.

If you live in the Pacific Northwest and haven’t been to Starcrossed you are really missing out. I’ve participated as a racer, and as a spectator and it’s always worth the drive. Riding too fast over the sketchy euro pedestrian bridge makes you feel like you are right in Belgium.

Since Starcrossed is on the 22nd, the September winner will be chosen on September 20th.

Here’s some of today’s amazing photos. More will be posted this weekend.



The above submissions were from Chris Brandt, Mark Legg, Dan Coy, and Brooke Hoyer. More to come. Submit your photos via email to paincave @ race.cx
