Cyclo-Cross

For the first time since I started racing, I will not be competing in cyclo-cross racing this winter. Having spent the year racing full time in Belgium, I feel ready to totally specialise in road racing as a viable option for my future, and will spend the winter months preparing solely for my return to Belgium next summer. It feels a shame to leave such an interesting and growing sport, but I need to rest up and recover, before returning to training to build for the road season, and cyclocross racing doesn't fit that plan. 

I'm sure I won't evade cyclocross totally this winter though, and will no doubt be dragged into pit assistance some time very soon!
