Event Information
Welcome to the 10th Annual Pumpkin Cross cyclocross race presented by Local Ride Bike Racing on Sunday, October 29, 2017. This fun and action-packed family cycling event is traditionally Halloween-themed and features best costume prizes. The event is geared to all abilities and ages of cyclists with the number one goal of having a great and spoooky time on two wheels.
WHAT IS CYCLOCROSS?
Cyclocross is a discipline of cycling that is growing quickly due to its accessibility (mountain bikes welcome in novice categories) and inclusive atmosphere (no one is serious here). With attainable race times (only 30-60 minutes!), short courses (usually around 2-3km’s), and fun factor (barriers, run-ups, dirt, loud spectators, prizes, smiles, and more), it’s no wonder everyone is eager to get their ‘cross on!
Pumpkin Cross is one of the coolest events in the province, because of its festive Halloween theme (costume prizes determined by popular vote, creepy course decor!), free kid’s race, challenging and entertaining course, and party atmosphere (music, announcer, BBQ, costumes, prizes)!
Put Pumpkin Cross on your calendar today and race it Sunday, October 29, 2017!
PARKING AND VENUE
We will once again be using the Maple Ridge Equi-Sport Centre / North Alouette Greenway Park, located on Park Lane just off of 132 Ave. in Maple Ridge. Racers will be treated to a fabulous course, with some spooky technical twists, plenty of slimy, off-camber grass, some screaming fast gravel, and wicked barriers.
