relaxed verge registration?

FROM: NBX G.P. of Cross / Verge New England Championship Cyclo-Cross 8 and 9, UCI cat.2
-------------------------------------------------

hello everyone,

wanted to let everyone know we are opening registration on Nov. 3rd at 5pm. look forward to seeing everyone for another great weekend!

thanks,
Matt and the NBX Crew
So, Looking at the list of people with points, I've got absolutely no incentive to sign up early.

And I like that. I can sign up the hour before Registration Closes. Or better yet (if they accept Day-of reg) just sign up at the venue - pay cash, and have the extra fee (if there is one - there wasn't at Canton) go towards the venue. Although I have no problem supporting bike reg and what they do with archiving the results and all that (so Results boy and put them on his massive cloud computer/server at Crossresults.com). Anyway.

Signing up early, ie the race for registration may just now be over. And that is a damn good thing.

I hear ya. I'm taking the approach of lining up in the back row where I belong if I even get a chance to line up. Except that Sterling thing where I'll be first loser without a point... if I go.

If you are going to spend January to August blogging cross, cross, oooo-ahhhhhh I love cross, then perhaps you should race more cross now while you have the chance. The end is near.

I'm getting too old to do doubles every weekend on top of the rest of my life.

But I can't miss next weekend completely.

And then we've got Plymouth (mandatory double weekend), then Lowell, then Sterling double (already signed up), then NBX double, then Nats SS and 35-39, and what ever series someone decides to put on around here between Christmas and New Years.

And yeah - the end is near... way too near.

I will be relaxing on my couch, polishing my Verge points on November 3 at 5PM.
