Cyclocross is coming to our neighborhood this Sunday (November 15th).

What is cyclocross?
Cyclocross is a bicycle-related sport combining the fitness of road riding, the technical bike handling skills of mountain biking, and the finesse of running all in a 45-60 minute event. Typically, cyclocross-specific bikes are used (looking like a road bike, but with a wider, knobby tire, and good mud clearance at the brakes). Mountain bikes can be used, too.

This Sunday’s race will be held at Woodland Park. Check out the course here. Racing will take place 9:30 a.m. – 3:30 p.m.

The best part of the day?

Recently, we’ve made arrangements with our friends at Fremont Auto Detail to provide shuttle service from Woodland Park, to Brouwer’s Cafe, and back to Woodland Park during race day! The shuttle is on MFG, and tips are welcome to the driver. Shuttle begins at noon, and runs through the afternoon. So, finish your race, head down to Brouwer’s, and have a drink!!!

Brouwer’s Power Hour begins at 3 pm, and the MFG Woodland Park After Party begins at 5:30 pm. A light dinner buffet will be served until food runs out. (You are on your own for drinks!) All 21+ are welcome, and the dinner is on MFG and Brouwer’s. Hope to see you at the party, and ride that shuttle!
