Nundah CX is back for 2022! - Round 1 Queensland CX Series


After a hugely successful event in 2021, cyclocross racing is back at the Nundahdrome (Albert Bishop Park) on Sunday March 20th 2022. This time the event is Round 1 of the QLD State CX Series.

Again this year there will be a category to suit everyone with A, B, C, and Open (first timer) grades for Men and Women as well as Junior age groups and Kids’ races.

The course will be fun, fast, and feature packed with a true CX feel. Enjoyable to race and great for spectating with riders visible for most of the lap.

There will be coffee, snacks and a sausage sizzle available.

It’s a great day out for everyone whether an experienced racer or complete novice, hope to see you there!

Entry Grades

Cyclocross is an exciting, challenging, whole of family activity. We don't expect you to be at World Cup level, but pushing yourself is all part of the fun - so please enter into a grade appropriate to your level of fitness and/or experience… NO SANDBAGGING… ;-) The club reserves the right to move people who have entered in an inappropriate grade. We have 4 separate grades for Men & Women - A,B,C and 'Open' for first time racers as well as grades for kids by age. If you are unsure of which grade to enter, here’s a very loose guideline:

  • If you race A grade on the road/MTB/CX, enter A Grade
  • If you race B grade on the road/MTB/CX, enter B Grade
  • If you race C grade or below on the road/MTB/C, enter C Grade
  • First-timers - If it's your first ever bike race and you have absolutely no idea what to expect, then enter the Open (Male or Female) Grade, have some fun, hang at the back to watch and learn the style of racing. This grade will start in a wave shortly after C.
  • Juniors and Kids enter your appropriate age category and have fun. Junior age groups are based on 2023 ages to fall in line with the National Series therefore second year riders will move up an age group

Licences
