HPCX 2016: UCI Racing in New Jersey
HPCX is one of the main events on the East Coast calendar. And because it is just over an hour away from the city, we always look forward to this weekend (along with Supercross, our other 'local' UCI race).
The course is made up of slippery corners, climbing, fast loose descents, and couple sandpits. It is always very cool to see how a typically flat NJ landscape is turned into a challenging cx course.
As for the performance of the squad, the team racked up two 4th and one 6th place over the weekend, though our biggest source of excitement was probably breaking out our new Garneau cyclocross kits for the first time.

TBD’s women’s squad opens their race season in New Jersey
For those who have time off during the holidays, are looking to spend time with family outside (or avoid them), or are just newly trail-curious, TBD presents the Twelve Trails of Christmas—a dozen of our favorite trail systems within an hour(ish) from New York City.
Events like the Easton Twilight Criterium and the Tour of Somerville highlight the beauty, excitement, and camaraderie that make this sport truly special. We hope we’ll see you there.
With the 2019 cyclocross season over, we look back at warmer days spent racing some great NJ grassroots CX at Lucky Charm
The event did not disappoint! The roads were great, featuring a healthy variety of pavement, chunky gravel, hard pack dirt, and fish tank gravel.

Cullen hurt himself. Tom missed the start. The elite races were both over 65 minutes long. Travis flatted out. Clay did just OK. But it was a great day, because warm Bubblecross is great.
The Giro del Cielo stage race in New Jersey has long been a TBD favorite, but this year’s race threw us for a few loops, particularly when it came to the weather.
