watching cross

February 2, 2024

At the end of 2022 I began actually watching cyclocross races. My kid still had “naps” on days when he wasn’t at school and I discovered that YouTube could show me what had been going on in Belgium that morning. It was ‘kerstperiode’¹ so there were a pile of races to get thoroughly immersed in. I’d watch most of a race and then get the final lap queued up for when C could come out of his room and we would watch 15 minutes of muddy bike racing.
