We’re thrilled to announce the Speed River Cycling Club is bringing cyclocross racing back to Guelph this fall! We are building on our 10+ years of experience organizing some of the best CX races in Ontario to provide an awesome racing experience for all. We’re moving to a great new venue, the Guelph Lake Conservation Area, that provides for a course featuring a full mix of racing surfaces, some tricky technical sections, high speed paved sections, natural sand pit, and a forced dismount or two!
Highlights:
- A challenging and exciting race course
- Convenient parking and awesome spectator potential
- Cash prizing and merchandise (including beer!)
- Washrooms, free coffee, and a food truck!
- Free park admission for all pre-registered riders (a $6 savings)
- Live online lap-by-lap scoring, timing, and results by
The Guelph Cross 2016 race is sanctioned by the Ontario Cycling Association as a Regional race (not an O-Cup). But OCA Upgrade points will be awarded!
