OUR FINAL RACE OF THE YEAR – XC#7 is coming up quick! Here’s everything you need to know.
GENERAL INFO:
WHAT A SEASON IT HAS BEEN. And here we are at the last race of the season. After the massive high of the 40-Miner, lets carry that momentum and excitement forward. Mass start by category as usual, starting at Kinsmen Park. Construction on the bike park has begun, so we will be doing check-in up near the parking lot. The field will not be set up as usual. It will be an active construction zone until around 5PM, so please do not expect to ride around.
*Reminder that start time is 6:30 due to it getting dark earlier.
COVID REMINDER:
Now that we are into Phase 3, masks are no longer required outdoors. 2m distancing is still required at all times so we will continue to use a grid of cones for the pre-race talk as well as the start.
