On Sunday November 21st, The Barrie Cycling Club is pleased to present the 4th annual Barrie Cross race, re-dubbed "The Baseball Cross".

This is the sixth stop in the Southern Ontario cross series, and the course has been laid out with speed and flow in mind, so expect fast corners, every surface type imaginable:  gravel, pavement, grass, and soil. One nice run-up per lap along with some tight turns to keep the course balanced.

The race is being held at the Barrie Sports Complex, which is a premier sporting venue, with on-site features that include a covered pavilion with heated washrooms, playground for the kids, fire pit and lots of parking.  There will also be hot food and drinks on-site, with hot breakfast and lunch available to help keep you warm.
