Slight change for Round 3 to accommodate all the jnr rippers!

🚨 RD3 IS COMING 🚨

📍 Southern Cross CX | Round 3
📅 Saturday June 14th
🌲 BOTTLE LAKE HILLS access via Bower Avenue

Bottle Lake Hills. The name alone should get your legs twitching. This one is going to be GOOD.

⚠️ IMPORTANT - PLEASE READ BEFORE YOU COME ⚠️
Bottle Lake is a shared space. Dog walkers, cyclists, horses and humans all co-exist out there. Please drive SLOWLY on the access road and respect that we’re guests in their zone. Follow the directions of our incredible marshalls.

🏁 RACE TIMETABLE - RD3 ONWARDS

Due to RECORD numbers in Kids Grade (we LOVE this), we’ve split the K Grade to give everyone the race day they deserve:

🕙 10:30am — C Grade
🕙 11:30am — K Grade U10 & below | 20 mins | Short course
🕙 12:00pm — K Grade U17 to over 10 | 30 mins | Full course
🕙 12:30pm — Prize Giving 🏆
🕙 1:00pm — B Grade
🕙 2:00pm — A Grade
🏆 Prize Giving after A Grade & packdown!

The kids’ field at SCCX this season has been absolutely phenomenal. The future of CX in Canterbury is BRIGHT. 🌟

👀 FANCY DRESS ALERT 👀

Theme: WHERE’S WALLY 🔴⚪

Get your red and white stripes ready, dig out the beanie, and make this the most chaotic game of Where’s Wally a cyclocross course has ever seen.

See you at Bottle Lake on the 14th.

When you have a 4 wheel fully enclosed recumbent, and it ned a new freewheel mechanism, we can do that too. This Velomobile Quatrevelo is a regular head turner around the town. It was a few hours work to remove and replace, fortunately clever design meant we didn't have to completely disassemble.

Weather looks brilliant for another round of heckling, laughs and anaerobic fun tomorrow at Ferry Mead.😎

Something new is rolling into Southern Cross CX

We’re always looking for ways to make Southern Cross CX better for our crew

This year, that starts with rego.
We’re moving to Race Roster and it’s going to make things a whole lot smoother. 🤞🏼

Here’s what you can expect:

• Quick and easy registration
• One place to manage all your races
• Seamless check-in on race day
• Capturing all the important details
• Better overall experience for riders and organisers

Same vibes.
Just better behind the scenes.

Rego opening soon

Solving problems most shops are not equipped to do. A selection of what we did last week, seat posts fully stripped and rebuilt like we do every day, not just wipe and clean. Air systems in forks every service are cleaned and or seals repalced as necessary. Make a custom shock mourning bolt, and adapt a chain tensioner to make it more stable.
