I just can't see myself ever doing that. I ride for transportation and socializing and fun. Even if I ride a century, it'll be mostly for bragging rights. If I ever ride cyclocross, it'll be for fun and bragging rights. I have no expectation of winning, partially because I'm just not willing to do any kind of real training--although I'd love to do the 'cross clinics at the velodrome!

I sometimes wonder if I'd have ever become a cyclist if I hadn't moved to SE Portland.
