It’s more than cyclocross, it’s more than cross country, it’s Double Cross!

Double Cross combines the best features of both disciplines to deliver a unique, challenging and fun racing environment. Our weekly training series takes things a step further by including a prescribed workout routine during the race to assist in enhancing riders fitness.

The course/workout incorporates singletrack, barriers, run ups, taped cyclocross/field courses as well as multi mile stretches of pavement to help in developing all rider disciplines. Show up to race, or show up for a great workout or just show up for a fun and challenging developmental ride. You will be a stronger rider at the end of this series.

The racing format is designed for moth Cross Country mountain bike racers as well as advanced CycloCross racers. The off road segments are primarily made up of tight, twisty singletrack which mountain bike riders will be used to but probably a little more technical than most road riders who also participate in cyclocross will be used to. It's a great way for both disciplines to advance their bike handling. Mountain bikes race mountain bikes, CX bikes race CX bikes. It's a different type of racing on a different type of course but it's guaranteed to be FUN and competitive.

Lights are required since we are not able to light 6-7 miles of singletrack. Rental units are available from our sponsor TrailLed (details available soon). Tail lights are also required since some of the course is made up of public road way to increase mileage and to incorporate the training regimen for those who follow that.

The course workout is specifically designed in conjunction with Zoe Fitness (USAC and USAT certified Coach Zoe) to specifically assist participants with:
Power
Endurance
Bike Handling
& Racing Skills
The training series will utilize a traditional, mass start racing format. We may incorporate other formats throughout the series (such as time trials) depending on conditions. The series will be held each week rain or shine but some course features may be bypassed due to weather conditions.

Much of the course will be run at night and some of pavement sections will be on public roadway. Headlights and tail lights are required. Trail LED is one of our sponsors so they will be more than happy to assist with any of your lighting needs. Some rental units will be available $5 per night until sold.

Staging/Start/Finish will take place at the Corinth Community Park in Corinth, TX (accessible by rail from Dallas). Course details are still being finalized so maps will be posted soon. We are still determining if we will combine multiple short track events into each evening or if each night will consist of a short track warm up followed by a full length race. Plan on a race start time of 6:00 pm for preliminary races/warm ups and a feature race start of 7:15 pm. Times may adjust in later weeks.
Price = $15 for a night of racing includes a one day license for those who don’t have annual licenses when you register online. $5 refund on site if you have an annual license. On site registration is $15 plus a one day license fee of $5 if needed. Online registrations can be rolled into the following week if you are unable to attend. Online registration will be available soon. We will also offer a full series package at a significant discount to week by week pricing.
