The Trail Hub is excited to invite all riders to participate in our annual Cyclocross Race!
This race allows riders to test themselves against other riders in the same age group, in a fun and relaxed atmosphere. Batty 'Cross is a staple in the Cyclocross season, and we look forward to welcoming many new and returning racers, family, and friends.
Join the Halloween excitement at the Trail Hub with
The Goblin Grind Relay Race
! In this thrilling 60-minute event, teams of four will each complete one lap, making it a total of four eerie laps. Stepping up from the "Ride-the-Plank" Challenge, this race is filled with laughter, spine-tingling challenges, and memorable moments. Participants will weave through the Inner-Tube Snake, dart by the Pumpkin Patch Pass, get chills in the Haunted Forest, and navigate the Ghostly Slalom. And here's the twist:
teams switch up their 'Team Costume' after every lap!
For those watching, don't miss a moment and enjoy the view from our adjacent Beer Garden. Get ready for a ghoulishly good time!
There are no licence or bicycle requirements. All riders are welcome to participate.
