On Sunday, November 21st, the Barrie Cycling Club will be hosting its 4th Annual Barrie Cyclo-Cross Race. Part of the Southern Ontario Cup Cyclocross Series!
This year the event will be held at the Barrie Sports Complex! We can promise loads of parking, and closed roadways during each race for complete safety of all riders.
We’ll be doing course layout and design in the next couple of weeks, and we’ll be sure to post our design, and a full lap video the moment that’s taken care of.
We are super excited about our new location. Not only is it closer to Barrie, but it features a playground for children, a large, covered area in case of inclement weather. The complex also features a fully stocked snack shack, which will be offering racers both a hot breakfast, and a hot lunch, or bowl of chili for when you’re done racing.
We’ll have warm, heated washrooms, and hoses to wash your bike with after your race.
Registration opens at 8am and closes 30 minutes prior to each race start. The course will be open for pre-riding after 8am on Nov. 21st.
PLEASE NOTE: One day licenses will be available for this event at a cost of $10. They can be purchased at the time of registration.
Cost of the event is $25 pre-registered, and $30 day of registration for all categories other than Junior and Under 17. For these categories the cost is $20 pre-registered and $25 day of event. All riders are encouraged to pre-register, through the OCA website.
Race starts will be as follows:
10 a.m. – Under 17; Senior 3/4 Male; Beginner Male; Master 3 Male
11:30 a.m. – Junior (17-18) Male& Female; Senior Female; Beginner Female; Master Female; Master 2 Male
1 p.m. – Senior 1/2/3 Male; Master 1 Male
There will be a cash purse for Senior 1/2/3 Male & Senior Female, along with great merchandise prizes for all other categories. Awards will be held immediately following the completion of each race start.
The course is approximately 2.5kms in length and is going to be exceptionally spectator friendly, and a challenge for every rider.
We have a great number of sponsors and partners onboard for this year’s race, we’ll start to announce some of them, and their contributions as we get closer to the race.
Hope to see you there.
