And take your mountain bike so you can shred afterwards. The trails
are in PERFECT shape.

Important Information!!!!
For those who have never raced the Bend races. GO DO IT!!!!!!!
Not only will the Crusade Crew build and insane course, but the town will be
a fantastic place to spend your time on top of the fun racing.

Bend EMBRACES bike racing because of the people there! So many of them
travel long distances to race over in the Willamette Valley because they
love not just kicking butt, but the visiting great people racing on both
sides of the mountains.
Bend and the Crusade put on a GREAT WEEKEND!
Treat yourself to some Cross-trickery.

The Crusade Crew is off to Bend first thing Wednesday morning to build an
insane course for the Halloween Cross Crusade Weekend at Deschutes Brewery.
This course is undergoing many changes from what we have done in the past.
So you are in for a surprise. This is the course that we plan on using for
the Deschutes Brewery Cup UCI C1 race on Dec. 7th.

There is an early registration event at Crow's Feet Common in Old Town Bend
from 6-9pm on Friday. Live music, beer, and conversation will all occur.

Rooms are still available at our host hotel, Marriott Towneplace. Camping
is also an option on site in the same area as years past.

I've been speaking with a certain Tour of Spain winner that says he's going
to come hang out with us and eat cheeseburgers. So come get your picture
taken with one of the great cycling hero's of our time.

Deschutes Brewery is not only hosting the Crusade CX races, but is also
hosting thee party of all party's on Saturday night immediately after the
Clydesdale Championships of the Universe.

Sunday is the official costume day. (I am never dressing up as a coffin
again). Let's see what you got. Remember though that it is A OK to not
wear a costume too.

If you are on the fence about whether or not to make your way to Bend this
weekend, consider this. The weather is going to be outrageous and Bend is
one of the most amazing places you could be this time of year. Phil's Trail
System is in its best condition and world class micro brews will be flowing
all around town.

See you there and I hope you have the best weekend of you whole life.

The Crusade Crew is off to Bend first thing Wednesday morning to build an insane course for the Halloween Cross Crusade Weekend at Deschutes Brewery. This course is undergoing many changes from what we have done in the past. So you are in for a surprise. This is the course that we plan on using for the Deschutes Brewery Cup UCI C1 race on Dec. 7th.

There is an early registration event at Crow's Feet Common in Old Town Bend from 6-9pm on Friday. Live music, beer, and conversation will all occur.

Rooms are still available at our host hotel, Marriott Towneplace. Camping is also an option on site in the same area as years past.

I've been speaking with a certain Tour of Spain winner that says he's going to come hang out with us and eat cheeseburgers. So come get your picture taken with one of the great cycling hero's of our time.

Deschutes Brewery is not only hosting the Crusade CX races, but is also hosting thee party of all party's on Saturday night immediately after the Clydesdale Championships of the Universe.

Sunday is the official costume day. (I am never dressing up as a coffin again). Let's see what you got. Remember though that it is A OK to not wear a costume too.

If you are on the fence about whether or not to make your way to Bend this weekend, consider this. The weather is going to be outrageous and Bend is one of the most amazing places you could be this time of year. Phil's Trail System is in its best condition and world class micro brews will be flowing all around town.

See you there and I hope you have the best weekend of you whole life.
