I can honestly say that I would have never seen Brookside if it were not for cyclocross. It is kind of a forgotten little town very close to the interstate. It has a Russian church and , you guessed it, a Brook. One thing that I can say is the Mayor is trying really hard to make it a place to visit. With this park, he has built a nice campground on a very pretty bend in Five mile creek.
We got there on Saturday evening and camped. We set up right on the track, in prime tailgating location for the next days event. It was a nice night.
CCC has a slow start this year, but at least we are racing. The SS class is insane and the masters are as brutal as ever.
The grilling,heckling and swimming were the best part of the Sunday to me. We were in the perfect location for Ccup to offer an Oscar Myer hand up. It would probably have gone pretty well with the PBR hand ups on the other side of the course.
