2012 Cross Provincials Details

Cross-Tastic IV

Sunday October 21, 2012

Location: Whittier Park

Provincials are different than every other cyclocross race of the season. In the other races riders compete in categories that are determined by ability. In Provincials categories are determined by age and gender (except the Kidz and Open/Citizen races). Remember that all categories are based on your age as of the END of 2013.

You must possess a race licence (not a citizen licence) to participate in the championship races. Out of province racers are welcome, but only Manitoba registered racers are eligible for medals. Non championship races will be held for those without a race licence.
