This will be the final race of the HICX cyclocross series, replacing the venerable Miller Chill on our calendar. RIP Miller Chill, but long live HICX!

Rick, My daughters ran the XC race yesterday and had a great time. I’m interested in the CX race on the 8th. But, this would be my first CX race. What is the distance? Is there an experience level requirement? Hopefully I don’t have to be part of the HICX series? Thanks.

Hi Todd, anyone can enter the bike races! There is a category 5 race where beginners will compete. Races are by time rather than distance – you’ll do as many laps as possible during your race’s time limit. You’ll need a helmet but otherwise special equipment is not necessary. Many people ride mountain bikes (bar ends not allowed). Spectating and friendly heckling are encouraged, too. Sound good?
