Held annually in conjunction with Interbike, Crossvegas draws 10,000 spectators and advertizes itself as the largest cyclocross event in the United States. Participation in Crossvegas is by invitation only. I think Brian had something to do with getting Tate into the USA Cycling race at Crossvegas and he did not disappoint. Tate started in the second to last row in 101st position. In the first lap, another cyclist hit a barrier. Tate got smacked by the bike which lacerated his leg, but he did not go down. Tate rode the entire race at red line finishing 17th overall, a fine result in a very prestigious event.
