Need to work off those Thanksgiving calories? We have the solution for you.

Ninkasi Brewing, West End Bikes, and Foundry Cycles present a seasonal
favorite,* 'Winter Cross'*. Come and enjoy a mellow atmosphere as we
celebrate a day of fun holiday Cyclocross and fine craft brew. The Party
will be held at the Washougal Motocross Park, a 45 minute drive from
downtown Portland. Be prepared for whatever Mother Nature sends our way.

SPECIAL NOTES:

- This will be the same course as last year with a few improvements.
We’ll use all of the service roads in and around the MX track, not the
‘Ninkrossi’ course.

- Wear your ugliest Holiday sweater to celebrate the season (Second
row call up for all that race in the Holiday Sweater).

- *All* race heats have been shortened by *5 minutes* to allow for a
full schedule within the short daylight available. Please check the
schedule race day for all changes. The first race (Beginner Men) will be at
8:40am.

- This will be the 9th race of the GPET
(cyclocross.gp
)!

- Sellwood Cycles will be offering mechanical support.

will be lines just for racers who have a Cross bib number already. You will
