New Year's Eve Cyclocross Training Race
The New year’s eve race is a go, here are the initial details. First off, how about a foolish name- Conky’s Revenge, Mister Jingle’s hot lap event or The Super Team awesome grand prix. I will post the name later, got to think on this one. It is on Friday Dec 31st , of course.
Start at 1 pm at Burgoyne woods park ( same as the cowbell race). Course will be flat and have some new features that are different from the cowbell race. The lap will be less technical than a true cross course but if there is snow then that will make up for it. I plan on staking and taping as much as possible but I do not have a lot of time so there will be some flags used to mark the straight a ways and no brainer areas. At this time I do not plan on doing any formal results but I will update the blog if this changes. The start is planned, as one start with a few waves. The waves will start slow to fast and possibly some draw prizes. We can get together at the cat’s caboose restaurant up the road after the event if there is enough interest. The focus on this event will be fun and course safety.
$15 entry or $10 for under 18
Also racers will need to have a license to race, as there will be no one day permits available.
If you plan on coming email me at row618 at hotmail.com. If enough show interest then I’ll get a big tub of tim hortons or star bucks coffee for the day.
