'Cowboy Cross' on Vancouver Island

Race #3 in the Vancouver Island Cross Cup Announces Race Venue

The 3rd stop in the 2006 Vancouver Island Cross Cup will be held at the Luxton Fairgrounds, Metchosin in greater Victoria. This event will be called “Cowboy Cross” so dress accordingly!

As with all of the Cross on the Rock’s races they are open to club level licensed riders as well as Cycling BC Licensed rider. Mountain bikes are welcome in all categories.
