The cyclocross season opener for Southern California Cyclocross Cup took off in high fashion Sunday with the Scary Fast Cyclocross Cup at Pierce College in Woodland Hills, Ca. Located in the heart of the San Fernando Valley, this humble agricultural college was the perfect backdrop for the 132 'crossers that came from all over the Southwest.

The A-Men's event started of with a vicious attack from the gun by the youngster from Thousand Oaks, Perry Paolini (Team Rocket Parts), who took the hole shot at the first corner and kept the field in an eye-crossed world of hurt for three laps until the heads of state started working together to reel him in. With Paolini caught, it was 'F-Troop back to normal' in the form of a wicked counter attack from fellow Rocket Part team-mate Mark Noble who took control of the race with constant assaults on the courses run-ups and short climbs that made this such a challenging race. The ever consistent Brent Prenslow (Celo Pacific) charged till the end, making it a difficult day for Noble to take second. Strongman Erik Burgan (Team D.A.R.E.) held off a four-man chase group to take third.

In the Women's A race it was Kelly Bicycle's Dorothy Wong taking top honors from Jennifer Franklin (Velosport) who took second and Team Amgen's very own Maegan Daigler taking third.

In the Jr-Mens division, it was a battle royale with Excel team-mates David Mendoza and Luis Zamudio who broke away early and fought it out tooth and nail with Mendoza getting the better of his team-mate/rival at the line. The cerebral assassin, Jake Morris (Team Amgen) came in nipping at there heals for third.

The next race for the So. Cal 'crosser's is up north to Solvang. Go to www.ridesb.com for the info.
