Dirt, bikes, running over obstacles and hand-ups of beer and dollar bills — it's no wonder that cyclocross is the fastest growing cycling discipline in the US. Here in Northern California, there are cyclocross races happening every weekend from now till January 2018 so if the above sounds like fun, get ready for it by joining our next Race Curious event!
What: Cyclocross Skills Clinic
Where: University Terrace Park, 369 Meder Street, Santa Cruz
When: Saturday, December 16, 10am to 1pm
For: Ladies who are completely new to cyclocross, or who have dabbled in it and want to hone their skills
Equipment: Cyclocross bike or hardtail mountain bike would be best, but a full-suspension bike would work too. Helmets, gloves, shoes and water are a must, obviously.
Cost: FREE!
Led by local racer Sarah Jordan, this clinic will cover skills like dismounting, running over barriers and up hills with a bike, and remounting while running. Participants will be prepared to try out their new-found skills at the Surf City cyclocross race held the following day, Sunday, December 17, at the CDF station in Bonny Doon.
