Event Description

Cyclocross is a form of bicycle racing similar to cross-country running, but on a bicycle. Courses feature wooded trails, grass, pavement, steep hills, and obstacles. Practice trails are offered periodically at select locations throughout the year.

In partnership with CORP (Capital Off Road Pathfinders), we offer practice courses in select parks for one designated evening in the late summer and early fall. 

Each practice course is open 5-7pm on the date indicated. You'll need a bike with knobby tires, such as a mountain-style bike and a good-fitting helmet. Some parks do not have water or restrooms; please plan accordingly. No registration is required. 

Weather Updates

Events are weather and ground-condition-dependent and may be canceled. Please see CORP's Facebook page for the latest information. This event page may not be updated.
