<p>Any one have any tips for racing/riding (other than tire pressure) in snow? What is the best way to tackle the snow, high cadence or keeping the power down?</p>

<p>Hi there,</p>
<p>So I'm in my first year of racing Masters Cat 3/4 (and my first year of racing period) and I'm wondering if anyone has any advice about race pacing?</p>
<p>I have tried a few different things and I find if I go hard on the first lap to set up a position, I don't have a lot left in the tank for the last two laps (of a 6 lap race).

Yet if I don't go hard out the gate, it is even hard to work your way up through the pack. On average I am finishing top 20 in a field of 40-60.</p>
<p>I realize pace is highly individualistic and dependant on course conditions and fitness but I'm interested to hear what strategies others use and why.</p>

<p>I wanted to get people's opinions on Gravel Bikes used for Cyclocross. I've read the opposite happens quite a bit (people using cylcocross bikes for gravel races, with some modifications), but was wondering if anyone has used a gravel specific bike to race cylcocross. </p>

<p>This question came up while I was looking at the Salsa Warbird series (beautiful bikes btw) and noticed they are using some of the Shimano CX70 components. The geometry of the bike is different from most cyclocross bikes but seems to serve some similar purposes. The big difference I can see is gravel races are usually long distance so gravel bikes designed more with comfort in mind.</p>
<p></p>
<p>Please feel free to discuss. I would love to hear people's opinions on these two styles of bikes, the differences and similarities.</p> wheelset recommendations for a noob?tag:cowbell.cxmagazine.com,2012-10-12:1198434:Topic:1341862012-10-12T17:35:58.315ZGraham Winterbottomhttps://cowbell.cxmagazine.com/profile/GrahamWinterbottom
<p>Hi there,</p>
<p> This is my first cross season and I love it. I have been eyeing up some new rides but I think I will keep my steel Masi for another season until I am sure that I am ‘in it to win it’.</p>
<p>Until then I am thinking how to realize some weight savings. I have read the article on the site and I am considering a new wheelset and I’m wondering does anyone have any suggestions for a decent clincher set for under $400? I am considering the Fulcrum Racing 7</p>
