In episode one of our Emma's CX series, Si teaches her the very basics of the discipline. They discuss the bike setup and how it differs from your road cycling fit, they talk about where's best to ride cross and also your body position whilst on the bike. Si also teaches Emma where to look whilst riding, how pedalling technique may differ and finally some of the basic skills necessary for successfully taking on a cyclocross course. There are lots covered, see what you can learn!
