Cross is Back at Nundah!

Proudly presented by Hamilton Wheelers Cycling Club in conjunction with Queensland Cyclocross

Sunday 18th April 2021

COURSE MAPS ADDED AT BOTTOM!

It's great to see cyclocross growing with a number of new clubs hosting racing this season. The Nundah CX is being hosted by Hamilton Wheelers.

The course will be fun and challenging, using parts of the crit circuit and includes some fast-flowy singletrack sections of buch next to the cemetery.

We will be including a "Little Crossers" event for the kids (16 inch, balance bikes etc)

Note that Womens B,C and Open (First-timers) grades will be run as completely separate races so there will be no argy bargy push and shove (unless you want it!)

Cyclocross is an exciting, challenging, whole of family activity.

There are other CX races coming to SEQ in the coming months so this could be the start of something new and exciting for you and your whole family to enjoy.

With the recent rains, it's going to be wet, so get ready to get dirty! We guarantee this will be FUN... Hugely FUN!!! And you've never done this before, YOU REALLY DO HAVE TO GIVE THIS A TRY!!

Entry Grades

Cyclocross is an exciting, challenging, whole of family activity. We don't expect you to be at World Cup level, but pushing yourself is all part of the fun - so please enter into a grade appropriate to your level of fitness and/or experience… NO SANDBAGGING… ;-) The club reserves the right to move people who have entered in an inappropriate grade. We have 4 separate grades for Men & Women - A,B,C and 'Open' for first time races as well as grades for kids by age. If you are unsure of which grade to enter, here’s a very loose guideline:

• If you race A grade on the road/MTB/CX, enter A Grade
• If you race B grade on the road/MTB/CX, enter B Grade
• If you race C grade or below on the road/MTB/C, enter C Grade
• First-timers - If it's your first ever bike race and you have absolutely no idea what to expect, then enter the Open (Male or Female) Grade, have some fun, hang at the back to watch and learn the style of racing. This grade will start in a wave shortly after C.
• If you are U15 or U17 and just so happen to be super talented or speedy, perhaps moving up to B or C grade is a good idea?
• Juniors enter your appropriate age category and have fun
