Crusade Call-ups

Does anybody know of one place where I can read all the rules for how we can earn a Cross Crusade call-up? Is it correct that top ten for Double Cross 1 & 2 plus Zaaldercross in each category (cumulative points for the 3 races) have earned a call-up? Does Battle at Barlow count?

Thanks!
Brett

Congratulations to the winners at last weekend's cross series opener, GPTB David Douglas #1. It sounds like there was good racing (and beautiful weather), and the rest of September promises a whole slate of races across the whole state.

But as we look through September, I'm sure many a racer sees the hazy glow of October on the horizon and soon all eyes will turn to Alpenrose and the beginning of Crusading season. If you want to begin your Crusade season with your eyes on something other than the svelte derriere of the racer in front of you, it's time to start fighting for call-up points.

There are three races in September that will count for Crusade call-up points: Double Cross #1, Double Cross #2, and the Battle at Barlow. That's right, you have doublethe reasons to attend the Double Cross weekend. Points will be given to the top ten riders in each field (except beginners). The five riders in each category with the most points will be called to the line at the first Cross Crusade race on October 7th at Alpenrose.

Be sure to check out the full menu of cross races on the obra.org website, and I hope to see you at the Double Cross!
