Venue: Saltash School, Saltash, Cornwall
Ages: U8, U10, U12, U14, U16
Organiser: South West Cyclocross League
Round 3 of the South West Cyclocross League heads to Saltash School, where riders take on laps of a course of roughly 2.5km to 3.5km over grass, hills and whatever mud the winter has left behind. Cyclocross is raced on modified road bikes and is known for being a fast, friendly winter discipline with a brilliant atmosphere — expect plenty of cheering from the sidelines whatever your speed. It's a league run by volunteers and made up of rounds across the region, so you can come for one race or follow the series through the season.
