We take the Crosshairs Radio show on the road, once again, for episode 38. This time, to the Twin Cities, where I sat down with Nicole Mertz for a conversation that ranges from her first race ever on a single-speed cyclocross bike, that culminated in a stars and stripes jersey, to a bit of controversy…

In episode 37, we welcome CrossVegas head honcho, Brook Watts, to Crosshairs Radio for a lively discussion about the history of the event and what we have to look forward to for the tenth year celebration. In its second year as a World Cup event, CrossVegas has revamped the entire course and brought a fresh look to…

For episode 36, Cole Oberman dropped by CXHairs HQ after winning the Iron Hill Challenge MTB XC race and making the drive down interstate 95 to Washington DC. We had a great chat about the life of a pro MTB/CX racer and how cool Harrisonburg, Virginia has become. We then ate Thai food before sending Cole back…

For episode 35 I had the opportunity to chat with Richard Nieuwhuis, who owns A. Dugast BV, the company that makes Dugast tubular tires. We found some time before the Lenzerheide World Cup mountainbike races to sit down in the Scott Odlo compound and talk cyclocross. The environment was not ideal so there is definitely some…

Ellen Noble (Aspire Racing) is our guest for episode 34 of Crosshairs Radio. And it’s a good one. A really good one. I know I’m not alone in saying I’ve been a fan of Ellen’s since her days with Trek Cyclocross Collective.

We are calling episode 32 of Crosshairs Radio “The Sampler Plate,” because there is a little bit of everything on this episode and all of it is awesome. We start off the show by checking in with Jeremy Powers who gives an update on what he’s up to and also gives some insight into the…

We are back with another episode from the basement. For Crosshairs Radio episode 31, Taylor “Slinger” Jones and Kevin “CX Shark” Hays join Bill for an update on everything going on in cyclocross news.
