Give cyclocross a go or race in the SouthernCross CX series. You can bring your mountain bike (MTB) along for the Give-it-go and development category event for all ages (starting at noon).

CX bikes are encouraged for the race events (B Grade at 11am and A Grade at 1pm) - but you can compete on your MTB with tyres up to 42mm wide. SouthernCross will be loaning out some sets of CX tyres - if your 29er is compatible.

You can register on the day from 9am for each round. The cost is $25 for adults, $15 for university students, and $10 for juniors (or free with a racing parent) per round.

A discount is available if you wish to enter all rounds.

There are six rounds in the 2026 series:
