Christie Cross Country is back for year three. Saturday Oct 24 at Christie Pits Park after dark.

3km of cyclocross course. Sand pits, barriers, hills, three heats, a classic sausage cart slinging dogs and a dj to keep the energy high.

Party Laps (6:10) - party lap pace. No racing.
Cash Laps (6:45) - 6km, $10 buy-in, winners split the pot
B**r Lap (7:30) - one lap, three beers, 19+, prizes for the podium (non alc options available)

Winner of the B**r Lap takes home the Brick. You have to bring it back next year…

Headlamps mandatory. Trail shoes recommended. Costumes strongly encouraged. Spectators welcome, waiver required for all participants (link in bio).

This year we’re back with the generosity and love from Altra Running (come demo some trail shoes) and Burdock Brewery pouring. Thank you to our hosts and the goats Christie Cross for welcoming us back.
