2) Course preview and team tent set-up on Friday between 4:00 - 6:00pm
(Only sponsors are allowed to set-up tents early). If you are not a sponsor, do not set-up your tent before 4pm
Be sure to stake & weight tents down!

We really appreciate your understanding

Come to the Cyclocross Crusade tent located next to the podium. Have you seen the Cyclocross Crusade Limited Edition HiFi Cycling custom Mix Tape Disc wheel sets?!
If not, stop by the Crusade tent and check them out!
