About the Event

Experience the excitement of a fun-filled Friday night dedicated entirely to cyclo-cross! This unique evening offers an inclusive environment for novice riders, both male and female, welcoming them with separate but concurrent events alongside our Youth Under 16 competition.
The event is designed without ranking points or prizes, focusing instead on fostering camaraderie and enjoyment among participants. After the race, unwind and socialize at the final event where pizza and drinks will be served.
Categories are determined based on last season's age groups, with changes to cyclo-cross categories taking effect from September 1st. Please note that riders cannot request a higher category as it would compromise our insurance coverage.
Entries close at midnight on Wednesday or when the event reaches full capacity, so act quickly to secure your spot and join us for an unforgettable evening of cycling fun!
