With cyclocross season now winding down almost everywhere in the world (When is the Australian season?), there is a unfortunate shortage of new videos to post. This does give me a good excuse, however, to bring up an item of local interest. It not technically cyclocross, but it does have a ‘cross connection, and I even found a video.

It looks like Pirate Race Productions, promoters of the Dirt Derby and Lone Star Cyclocross Series (there’s the ‘cross connection), may be putting on a hill climb time trial this summer in Austin. The tentative date is June 13, and the location is the road into the Alexan Vista Apartments, across 2222 from Jester.

There’s a discussion of the event on the BiKe MoJo boards here.

Mike Weiland has a post on his blog detailing the climb, and the following video was shot  by Mike during the ride described in that post.
