Critical Dirt – A Study in Crossification


<Back to News Home |

We ran across this German documentary recently and thought it was worth sharing. Note the range of bikes, clothing, and the overall spirit of the riders. Good times. Put your feet up, grab a beer, and let your mind wander to riding options you might have around your area.

About Critical Dirt:

“CRITICAL FILM – A documentary about a very special weekend in July of 2010. A weekend of unconventional cyclocross racing. It only took 126 km of dirt, gravel and cobblestones devided in 4 stages between Dresden and Leipzig, 80 racers, 9 hours, 35°C, 600 liters of water, a ton of food, a world cup quarterfinal and many many enthusiastic souls, to make this an unbelievable experience.

They call it ‘CRITICAL DIRT – A study in crossification’.”

  1. Really enjoyed your in‐depth analysis of crossification in gravel racing! The way you break down the impact of terrain and technique got me thinking about how systematic research can reveal hidden performance factors much like the educational studies and research insights available at apdm-kpm.com which delve into how structured study enhances our understanding of complex systems. Thanks for sharing such a thought-provoking piece!
