Dirt Derby starts up again this Tuesday, so grab your cross bike and get FILTHY!
I've known this was coming up for a couple weeks now, but since they just sent out this big informative email about their inaugural night, I figured I'd share it with the ATXBS readership. If you like to get dirty and think bike racing is cool, this is your shit right here: The Dirt Derby. It's bike racing on a dirt motocross track. Cyclocross, mountain bike, single speed, carbon fiber, all is welcome at this course. Read on for the details, but their kickoff night is next Tuesday:
The course is settled, the schedule is settled, and we're all getting ready for Tuesday. September 1st's race will kick off the first of our four, 4-week series' with the opening one wrapping up September 22nd. So get ready to challenge and (if you've got the skills) defend the leaders board.
Of note:
Open Race is now at 7:30 - come early; stay not as late.
The beginner race will be a less technical affair than it has been before, and while the Open and Intermediate courses largely resemble those of years past, there will be an exciting new run-up for the 'cross racers.
Updated Schedule:
5:30 PM Gates Open
6:00 PM Registration Opens
6:30 PM B Short Track MTB / Cyclocross (25 min)
Intermediate, Masters & Single Speed classes
7:00 PM Beginner, Women Only & Kids (20 min)
