WE KNOW WHAT YOU DID LAST CROSS SEASON!
We’re throwing a dress-up cyclocross fundraiser event for Lighthouse Youth Projects! Join us for some fun under the sun in the park for a good cause on Saturday November 30th 😈 Proceeds from event entries and bar sales will go to Lighthouse Youth Projects so they can keep up the excellent work they do helping young people find their direction and stoke on life through the power of bikes!
🎃 There are multiple cyclocross rounds on offer and some feats of strength planned for those whose talents lie elsewhere.
🦇 The Giant Adelaide crew will be on site to give you some hot bike and cyclocross tips.
🧛 We’re keeping everyone hydrated at the bar with boutique sodas from Mischief Brew and refreshing beers from Bridge Road Brewers!
👯 In between the action you’ll be able to keep yourself moving by dancing to tunes thanks to DJ Cookie from Big Bao Club powered by a NW Group audio system!
🧟 There is a best dressed prize thanks to The Pedla and Knog so dress up and get creative!
🤝 We’re collaborating with Port Adelaide Cycling Club to build the cx course and make this event happen.
📸 Greyhound Media will be on site capturing you in all your high resolution spoopy glory!
So dress up, let your hair down and come play bikes with us!
