Those who have no ambitions of racing, but are looking for a fun social cycling group to be a part of are encouraged to join our growing cyclocross community, too! Our Team Ambassadors will teach participants everything they will need to know about cyclocross. The participant will learn how to register for races, what to expect at various race venues, racing skills and technique, equipment suggestions, and other training tips.
