WEEK 5

Week 5, this is what cross is all about. Steady rain all day, snot slick turns, and the battle for points showing on the faces of all the galdiators in the grass arena. Biscuit Risker went out hard on the first lap, reimplementing his strategy from previous weeks, hoping to hold off the 13th lap implosion. At one point, a commanding lead was established, but the lights were starting to dim in the wheelhouse. Sure enough, 13th lap fade set in and Two to go Deathblow would make it known how he got his name, riding clear on the Comly Curve with.....guess what?.........two to go! Deathblow maintains Cyan Jawn while "always a bridesmaid, never the bride" Biscuit catches the bouquet for second. Deeter's did not have it in the tank this week and fell off the group around lap 3, but managed to have some distance on fourth position to round out the SCCX podium.

Killer B's starting to show some rider separation, with the jump of the week going to JFlats!! 425 points!!! He was whipping it up in the group which also featured the likes of Fashion Sweater and Surfnbee. The pace was mean with Surfnbee trying to hold the wheel of Sweater unitl pace slowed a bit coming into the 2nd barrier. Surfnbee took advantage of JFlats war injury and ran to the front of the midpack. He opened up about a half lap lead over the next 4 laps, but JFlats began reeling him in on lap 6. Swapping blows with Surfinbee, he was able to capitalize on his rival's unlucky lap 7 prophecy. Lights out, tank on E, Jflats rides clear and solid into 4th. While the battle for the top of the B's is just getting started, it seems that Surfinbee only has 1 more race in him until his departure to pursue the next phase of his ASI career. We'll all miss our star cheerleader, but he is cookin' up one hell of a finale to make up for future lost race time! SCCX racers, prepare to hit the road and carry the torch a little farther south. Until then, lets get out there and put his heart in his mouth!!

Legal Tender, Celery Stalks, No Bueno, and Fashion Sweater all putting up solid rides in the slopfest. Some surges and attacks were seen on course. Cross is always a battle no matter what place you're in, so keep the fight alive!

Next week, Thanksgiving Eve, underground cross still rolls on. Can't stop!! Won't stop!!!! Steel Donkey, where u at?
