The Other East Hampton: Cyclesmart x TBD CX Camp Weekend Roll
Every August the squad has a tradition of attending Cycle-Smart’s CX Camp in Northampton, Massachusetts. This year, however, Cycle-Smart’s cross camp conflicted with Radsport Festival. So instead we hooked up with TBD’s coach, Jacob Fetty, on his way back down the East Coast for three days of cyclocross training amidst the tony homes in East Hampton. We’ll have a complete recap from the weekend soon, but we’re kicking things off with a Weekend Roll:
Day 1 - Trail Recon
Even though it was just a recon day, everyone was little rusty, so Jacob is started giving pointers right away.
So many trail options.
