Pics from Tennessee/PING: Monique

[ZeeExSixAre]

East Tennessee State University hosted a collegiate/regular or whatever you
call it race with Maxxis as a sponsor this past May. The events were DS,
XC, DH, and for the Maxxis ding-dongs, they held a mountain cross (4X). I
took some pics and just now got around to developing them and scanning them.

So Monique, this is what mountain cross is like:

teammate being embarrassed to be next to me:

Ah! The smile of a guy that's been having a lot of fun - even if he did make
a mess in his pants in the process.

Cool pics.

So mountain cross is BMX with bigger wheels, eh?

Thanks for the pics! Looks like motocross only on mountain bikes? What sort
of bike do you use for that, something designated all-mountain?

Usually a bike with a smaller frame than the one you would use for xc riding
and with a slacker geometry. Like these ones:

I'm not sure I know enough about bike geometry to really get the picture. But
thanks for the links =)
