Don't Look Now, It's The Infamous "Kansas City Scuffle" Video

After exhausting the vast resources of Oregon Cycling Action with an extensive search of the endless internet, we are able to bring you this invaluable video of the now infamous "Kansas City Scuffle." (Disclaimer: Any similarity to another Midwest product, namely the "Super Bowl Shuffle" by the 1995 Chicago Bears' Shufflin' Crew [pictured] is purely coincidental).

In this video you'll see the feel good hits of the season! You'll laugh! You'll cry! You'll see one Jerry-Springer-Lovin' American call it upon himself to try and add a little Versus Network-style extreme fighting 'tude to an otherwise perfectly good bike race. But enough already. Enjoy ... ...

Wendy Williams Scores National Championship

OBRA's own Wendy Williams won the Women's 40-44 National Cyclocross Championship Friday in Kansas City.

Williams (pictured here racing at the Washington County Fairgrounds) was also winner of Oregon's eight-race 2008 Cross Crusade series and Portland's unsanctioned Single Speed Cyclocross World Championships in 2007. She rides for River City Bicycles.

Emily VanMeter, Williams' River City teammate, earned the silver medal in the Women's 30-34 race, which was won by Maureen Bruno-Roy (MM Racing p/b Seven Cycles). VanMetter finished second in this year's Cross Crusade series.

The U.S. Cyclocross National Championships began Thursday and continues through Sunday, when the country's Elite men and women will compete for their titles. The same riders who battled this weekend in Portland at the U.S. Gran Prix will be vying for the chance to wear the stars-and-stripes jersey next season.

In the Elite Men's race, Bend's Ryan Trebon will be hoping to win back the title he earned in 2006 but lost to Tim Johnson in 2007. In the Elite Women's race, Sue Butler, who took third and fourth in last weekend's USGP races, will be trying for a podium spot.
