Hudson - Cyclocross

Today was a great day for a cyclocross race - not too hot, not too cold. We watched Paul race the juniors, Uncle Travis race (his 1st race ever) raced next, followed by Adam and then Gerrit finished it off for us. Here is a snapshot of our time in Hudson:


Gerrit had his 1st race of the season today. It was a long loop that included 
 180 degree turns
woods
straightaways
barriers

Gerrit had the largest cheering section too. It was almost as much fun to watch Luke, Paul, Travis, and Adam follow a 3 yr old around the course.

At the finish line Gerrit received a medal and he gave 'bones' to the little boy that was near him the whole race.

{Many people comment on how impressed they are that Gerrit is riding his bike w/o training wheels at age 3 - well, just go to a bike race and you'll see a lot of 3 yr olds riding bikes w/o training wheels.}
