The Race:
It’s always a sad goodbye when cyclocross season ends. We're having a post-season race for fun to keep things rolling a little longer. But we’re doing things a little bit differently: The Elites always get to sleep in, so we’re going to run the race order backwards so the "little guys" can catch a break for once. In addition to the "normal" categories, we also added a Singlespeed only category. Now, this isn’t Portland, so there won’t be any Tequila shots on the course or anything like that, but this is still your chance to show why Singlespeed Cyclocross is a special kind of riding reserved for only the extremely strong, stubborn or stupid.
Pint glasses: Free pint glasses for the first 25 pre-registered participants. Additional glasses will be available for purchase.
The Course:
Expect some fast pavement, a fair amount of trails through the woods, stairs, gravel, some off camber portions and a few fun descents. No promises, but we are also working very hard on getting a snow machine in case mother nature doesn’t give us any.
The Venue
Cherry Hill RV is the closest camping to Washington DC, and it is a hidden gem. The land is beautiful but if you live in the area, you probably wouldn’t have any occasion to go there. That is truly unfortunate, so here’s your chance. Registrations, Refreshments and Restrooms will be INDOORS @ the Cherry Hill RV Conference Center and Cafe (betcha didn’t know they had a conference center). There’s a playground for the kids, and there will be a detailed spectators' guide so your friends and family know all the best places to watch your lungs burn.
PRIZES
There will be prizes for the top 3 slots in each category.
First Prize will be the same for each Category. There will be some nice prizes for 2nd and 3rd.
The Winner of the Superbowl of Singlespeed CX will receive a hand-built steel CX fork from Palermo Bicycles.
We have a lot of other sweet stuff coming in from our sponsors too!
