1.4: Saturday – SoCalCross FEVER race #2 of 4

The SoCalCross Fever Series began in 2009 as a way to take the cyclocross season to late Jan to the first days of Febuary at the CX World Championships. This four race series will take place across Southern California’s top venues, so if you’ve got The Fever, we recommend you make the trips. A $500 cash purse will be awarded to the elite men and women at the end of the series. Custom series awards and weekly leaders jerseys by Voler to all categories. Cross Fever is a month’s worth of championship quality venues and a great tune up leading into Nationals or a great chance for a newbie to get a taste of the sport for next season. A free beginner’s clinic will take place at 8:30am each race with a one-lap preview of the CX course. Demo/rental bikes are available for $10/race. Winter weather gets us closer to the elements, so celebrate the real peak of the cyclocross season and hope you can join us for SoCalCross Fever!

COURSE:  A classic European style course. Fast, with a long paved start. Check out the “Rock Lobster Launch Pad” fly over! Average adult lap time is 7-9 minutes. There are “run up” sections, road sections and the rest is dirt and grass. We have added some new elements; this is one of the most demanding courses of the season. The course is very fast, very wide and very fun. There is 1 pit. The course will be set up by 1pm Friday January 3rd. if you wish to pre-ride and practice. The course is the same both days but run in the opposite direction on Sunday. Watch the forecast, all races held rain or shine and plan travel accordingly!
