The Cyclocross stage involves laps of the Winter Trail Fest course. The team has hand crafted the ultimate course showcasing our beautiful grounds. These include a section of our Dirt Art-built, green-flow mountain bike trail. With regular sections to overtake, the variety will keep you wanting more laps. Up, down. Grass, trail. Asphalt, stairs, and ramps. The creative use of school building features and road furniture will get you using your bike in new and unexpected ways.
