ANOTHER FIRST - at the Tailwind Michigan Double-X weekend, September 19th/20th, Michigan CX racings FIRST 'flyover' (now dubbed the 'Rhinover') made its debut! The ORANGE-CRUSH flyover challenged races with a tough stair section and a steep exit ramp. Rumor has it the ORANGE-CRUSH will be back at the Michigan State CX Championships in December.
