Portland USGP of CX, part 2

Ok one last shot of Sacha's butt at last week's USGP of CX in Portland, this time courtesy of The New York Times article covering the sadistic sport its cult scene.


“It’s a total cult following here,” said Matt Slavin, a local semipro rider who had taken the day off from racing and was wearing a pink wig.

He added: “Every race, you want to vomit, you want to quit, your bike’s not working, and then you come up a run-up and everyone’s cheering and you get pepped up. As soon as you’re done, you can’t wait for the next race. It’s kind of like a cruel drug — addictive.”

You always want to vomit and quit too?!?!?!! I thought I was the only one! Wow I feel better now being in such good company.
