    Compton takes first 'cross World Cup win
    By Brecht Decaluwé

    In only her third ever World Cup race, American Katie Compton (Spike
    Shooter) took her first victory on the cyclo-cross World Cup circuit.
    The 29 year-old totally dominated the women's race in Pinjacker,
    Netherlands where local Dutch riders had hoped to continue their
    domination from previous rounds

    Fandamntastic!

    Yes, very cool! Last weekend in Boulder she won both UCI races by
    approximately a minute each time. Before you think that means that
    the other US women are on par with the Euro-women, keep in mind that
    she changed bikes every lap just for the practice. No telling how
    large her winning margins would've been had she not spent so much time
    in the pits!

    I think it's her and Lyne for the North American contingent.
    Wanna bet how screwed the KC Cross Nats are? I'm seeing total cluster.

    The whole registration, and rider policies look to be quite different
    from the past few years, and I have real questions about how many
    really [censored] people they are going to have in the end if they
    stick to their guns on the rules they've set.
    The last two years the policy was "riders first" wherever possible,
    and I saw first hand all the work to do everything they could to
    accomodate riders, and situations that came up, and that's everyone
    from the organizing committee, to BikeReg, to the people working and
    volunteering at the race.
    I don't get that feel from KC and I really have questions about their
    being able to deliver on some of the things they've said.
    I sincerely hope I'm totally wrong and it works out great for
    everyone because I love Cross, but I'm not hopeful. I've got a front
    row seat to how Nat's here worked, and the Verge Series, and how far
    everyone involved will go in consideration of the racers and the
    experience. I've made it clear that I'm a huge fan of Adam Myerson, JD
    Bilodeau, Alan Atwood, Steve Roszko, and the folks here at Nebra, not
    just because they are friends, but because of how they treat people.
    I don't have any inside information on the KC folks, but what's
    posted makes me question things.
