Cyclocross racing carrying a rubber chicken

Cycling Weakly · September 2013

Elite US cyclocross rider Georgia Gould is becoming accustomed to racing while carrying a rubber chicken. Here she is chasing Helen Wyman last year:-

And here she is being handed up a second chicken:-

The question is, does anyone want a chicken handed up to them at Baldock on Saturday?

Im struggling to see how this can help cyclo cross performance.

Presumably helps with her eggsceleration?

She may be taking a tip from moto cross riders where they attach them to their scramblers....

May be that was a yoke too far!

I think it is all about style. This photo from Fyxomatosis shows a guy with plenty of style!
