Why Should I Race Cyclocross? IT'S SUPER FUN!
Contrary to popular belief, cyclocross racing is really fun. It's
technically challenging and physically demanding for mountain bikers and
roadies. The effort and skill required to compete elevates your overall
racing fitness and leads to great cardiovascular strength and bike
handling skills.
Cyclocross Courses
The classic cyclocross courses are 1.5- to 2-mile loops on a mix of
paved and off-road surfaces over flat-to-rolling terrain. Due to
darkness at N Meck Park, we will be using a shorter course at the
Charlotte Cross Series. Typically, races lasts an hour plus one lap.
But, what makes cross such a unique and challenging sport is that
courses always include obstacles that force riders to dismount, run
short distance while carrying their bikes and remount the bike.
Come check it out. Even if you don't race, come watch the race as you
can see the entire course from the finish line.
BTW folks, a mountain bike won the 35+ race on Sunday in Boone.
