Ontario had a condensed, but fun 6 week cyclocross race season which wrapped up Sunday, October 31 with the Provincial Championships, hosted by the Elm Tree Centre in Moffatt, Ontario.    The conditions were proper:  mud, rain, sun, colourful leaves and cowbells.  Chris Monette captured the essence of these tough, muddy races in this photo gallery of the Mariposa Team.
