    Ian--

    Love the vintage shots, could we maybe use the Newbury Cross 75 photo in a gallery either in the print mag or on the main website? I would just need a file and caption sent to photos@cxmagazine.com.

    Very cool connection. I'm actually in Delaware, so Iron Cross has been something that has crossed my mind from time to time. I know that Andrew is looking for content to use on the website and the mag, so if you don't mind (and of course I'll get in touch with Mark at YBR) I have a couple of ideas involving Iron Cross that I might pitch to him. And send the high res photo when you get a chance.

    Thanks!

    Excellent. Yes this is me! Glad to see you posting here.
    Also that you've set up the 'classic' epic cx events area!
