CANCELLED – Shuswap Cross Cyclocross Race
Klahani Park 6391 10th Ave SE, Salmon Arm , BC, CanadaUnfortunately the weather has not cooperated. All the snow we received over the last 2 days will not make it feasible to layout a proper course for this weekends race. We have made the decision to cancel the race. The Bad: Rather than re-schedule and risk a second snowfall we have made the extremely difficult call to cancel finals for this year. Overall series standings will be determined by those races that have already taken place. The Good: As a consolation, there will be an alternative cyclocross themed ride and potluck this Sunday in Kelowna for all who are able to attend. They will also be doing a simple bell ceremony for those who placed in top 3 in overall standings. Check out the Interior Cyclocross FB page for more details.
Salty Dog Registration Opens
Registration for Salty Dog opens on Jan 12 at 7pm. Register through Zone4.ca. Local's registration is open now. Go down to Skookum and fill out your details there. Be prepared to complete the entire registration form.
