A grand day out

On Sunday we headed off to San Francisco's Golden Gate Park to watch some cyclocross racing. It was 75 degrees and clear blue skies, even up in the city. Cyclocross is a lot of fun to watch; it is a small loop course (about 8 mins a lap), narrow so you get to see the riders up close and intense. The spectators are a little off-beat too... on one of the hardest climbs there were are large group of beer drinking spectators, clad in orange jump suits, cheering (those who made it up) and jeering (those who didn't) and offering money for any rider who would pick it up!
