Oct 2 Schedule Change

The organizer's permit request for Omand Park was rejected by the city. As a result there will be no race on October 2nd at Omand Park. We had previously held a meeting with city park officials and this comes as a bit of a surprise.

The cyclocross committee will attempt to arrange another race on that weekend. It may occur on either Saturday Oct 2 or Sunday Oct 3 depending on the availability of locations and commissaires. Stay tuned for more news.

UPDATE: The most likely date is SUNDAY Oct 3rd. We are working on a couple of venues to cover our bets and will update as soon as we have a permit.

    This comment is unrelated to Omand's Creek race, but is a category question. Last year I raced A, with a mountain bike. Should I continue in A or go to B and "earn" my way back? If I'm asking the wrong party here I apologize. Let me know how to redirect this.
    Looking forward to Mennocross.

    Hi Lincoln,

    You're in the group that has the choice of racing either A or B. Most of those guys decided to ride in the B group last week. That group is a lot more competitive this year. To race in A with a MTB you'd require 1.5" or narrower tires. You can email me at MCA_road@mts.net if you have any questions.
