want to disappoint Uncle Steve.

November 17: Darree Fields #1 **Rescheduled for Nov. 17, 2012**
Remember this course from the short track series? It’s like
that but gonna be wayyyyy longer. If you didn’t make it to short track,
shame! Expect a pretty cool course with berms and a fast road start.
- Directions - Use Houchard Rd. Entrance - Darree Fields Park
November 25: Darree Fields #2
So… same venue as the last race, but hopefully we get our gumption
together and change it at least a little bit.
- Directions - Use Houchard Rd. Entrance - Darree Fields Park
December 8: Big Run
Big? Yes. Run? Yes. Course is easily my favorite. 2 big hills in one little
park. It incorporates a soap box derby hill for crying out loud.
Just FYI – We moved the race to Saturday December 8, 2012 so as to not conflict the the OVCX race at John Bryan race on December 9, 2012.
- Directions - Use Clime R.d Entrance - Big Run Metro Park
December 23: Smith Farms
Hopefully it will have snowed by this time of year making this course
especially hard. Euro style racing. Expect pack riding and sprint finishes. With a long gravel road section you’re gonna wanna find somebody to draft behind.
- Directions - Three Creek Metro Park @ Smith Farms

are these races for cyclocross or is this mountain biking? Thanks!

These are cyclocross races. It is possible for you to sue a MTN bike, but if you have bar-ends, you have to take them off.

How do you register for these races? day of?
All races are “day of registration” only. This means that you must show up at least 15 minutes before your selected race to register. Usually, registration is near to the start/finish area. Also have your paperwork filled out and USAC license ready to move through line efficiently.
Hope to see you out at Big Run!
What classes are there for the upcoming Dec 23 race? What time do the races start? I am 59, first year of CX, so looking to be in a 50 or 55 plus class. It’s a 2.5 hour drive for me so I need to know the schedule. Thanks
The race day schedule can be found on the “Series Information” page.
We have one Masters Category (Masters 35+) at 2pm, as well as a Cat 4 (12pm) and Cat 3/4 (1pm) race. Registration opens at 11 and closes 15 minutes before each race.
Hope to see you in a few weeks.
