| Advice
on getting involved in other clubs' cyclocross events Cyclocross
is the winter sport of cross-country bike racing. Courses are typically in parks
and other public open spaces, where competitors have to complete several laps
of a circuit, often tackling obstacles that require them to dismount and carry
their bikes for short distances. Some races take place across open heaths
or moors. In cyclocross, the competitors start in a bunch, and the first rider
across the finish line wins. Cyclocross racing in the UK is governed by British
Cycling (BC). Detailed advice on getting involved in cyclocross will
be posted here in future. If there is anything you need to know in the meantime,
please refer to the BC
website or contact us.
