They don't really have CX in NZ. There is a one-off NZ Champs event but I get the impression it's a casual affair with a couple of dozen riders and half are on MTBs.
With the subtle shift to "sensible" bikes in the bike shops practical CX bikes from the like of Kona and Specialized are now available so the race scene may grow.
Cyclocross has a season? I thought it was just 'whenever you have enough wackos that show up in the middle of a frozen, muddy field to have a race, you go'.
What a great video - the soundtrack made it.
