Want to join a bunch of other crazy people that like to ride in freezing cold and have people scream and ring cowbells at them? Or just need something to do this weekend? Head to Georgia for the Southern Cross.
What is Southern Cross? It’s an epic cyclo-cross race based in the Chattahoochee National Forest of north Georgia on Jan. 9th, 2010. In the same vein as the Three Peaks Challenge & Iron Cross, the course will consist of a “traditional” cross course with twists, turns, run-ups & barriers. Then participants will head out on a 50+ mile loop of dirt and paved roads featuring mountain top vistas, rolling rivers and tumbling creeks. Finally the course finishes on another cross course with features that the UCI would not approve like the Wall! With 7900+ feet of climbing over it’s 50 some scenic miles the Southern Cross course is sure to challenge and thrill. Following the race there will be heaps of chili, SweetWater & Yazoo brews and the awards ceremony where we will give out cash and prizes.
Register now if you want a guaranteed post-race meal…and get on it, the race is this Saturday.
