CORC CX Course build & Crit Race
February 15, 2020 @ 1:00 pm - 6:00 pm
We know it’s summer, but CX is coming! This season we will be trialling a new CX course at Stromlo. As you would understand, we have been unable to safely start preparations on the new course, so we have come up with a new approach. To build and test the course we will be running two build days, followed by short, crit style races on the course. The first race will be Saturday 15 Feb (note new date).
This is how it works:
From 1pm: Course setup. We will need volunteers to help set up the course. Since this is a new course we will have to do some branch trimming and some light ground work in places. There will also be the usual course taping, set up of barriers etc to be done. The aim for this session is to get half the “full course”set up
From 5pm: Crit racing. If you helped build the course you race for free, otherwise entries are $5. On the day entries only. All riders needs to be MTBA or CA licensed. Depending on numbers we will run C grade (12 min target time), B grade (15 min target time) and A grade (20 min target time). This will be a low key event, a chance to test the new course and maybe clear some of that smoke from your lungs. As is the new normal, the plan is subject to air quality and venue access.
