Every kid counts: juniors take on 2014 Colorado cyclocross championships

Cider spray podium at 2014 Colorado state cyclocross championships

It’s the biggest show of the year aside from national championships.

Almost 120 kids ages eight to seventeen pedaled, pushed or dragged bikes uphill and over wood planks on Saturday. They passed and encouraged each other across dry grass, paved paths, and a bit of mud for twenty-five to forty minutes at this year’s Colorado state cyclocross championships.

Share their experiences with this set of photos and video. Some of them will be back at it on Sunday, racing in adult categories.
