Topics for this ep touch on learning how to enjoy riding bikes, again, and reassessing goals and expectations.

Zach Schuster, editor of Cyclocross Magazine, is back for another episode. With the U.S. cyclocross calendar more or less set, we broke down how the season is going to look with less races and significantly less C1 races. Lots of ideas thrown against the wall in this episode. Time will tell if any stick.

Trying something a little different, this week. It's just me, your cylclocross friend, Bill, coming at you with a solo ep. Calling it the Cat 5 show because the goal was to keep it around 35 minutes. I failed at that, though, so I may have to call it the Cat 3/4 show, instead.

For the episode, I revisit the UCI announcement about UCI CX teams requiring at least one woman and one man and the feedback from last week's show. I also preview the PRO XCT and dig into some viewer mail.
