A 3 race series for the euro cyclocross freaks at iconic Bellingham area venues. We take a dash of european course design and mix it with the fun and funkiness of Bellingham. It will be Zesty for sure.

SEPTEMBER 28th

1001 Squalicum Way, Bellingham, WA 98225

The Course

Our first location is at Squalicum Creek Park. A beautiful park located in Bellingham Washington. It’s a beautiful bowl shaped space with some challenging run ups, off camber sections, and a pit area even the UCI would be stoked on. Site lines in this park allow spectators to see more than 80% of the race from the start and it has bathrooms and water available. Even fido can get in a few laps at the enclosed dog park.
