Cyclocross!

OA Victoria is proud to offer Learn to 'Cross clinics each Saturday morning in September and October. All are welcome, no fee, meet in the parking lot at Oak Bay Bikes by 9am.

We're also holding small, fun 'Cross Comps, mini race events, they'll be just a few minutes long to test specific 'cross skills. We'll also have some guest instructors, see below for details, and check back frequently! Comps begin at 12 noon, and are at Beacon Hill Park, see below for details.
