Pirate cXc is an undereground race series designed to link the end of Cyclocross race season and the beginning of Cross Country race season. For those who want to race year round the Pirate cXc will keep you psyched, keep you training and provide a transition from CX to XC, all while having fun and doing a totally different style of race. Pirate cXc merges the two disciplines.
What do we mean by totally different style of race? First thing’s first; Both CX and XC style bikes/racers are welcome. Each course will be designed to allow both riding styles equal advantage and/or disadvantage. Courses will be a combination of single track, double track, pavement, dirt, mud, snow and grass. Obstacles will be many; Logs, sand, barriers and skills oriented types of ‘objects’. Races will be lap races. Races will be at night, requiring all participants to have lights. Races are coming soon, this winter; prepare for pain.
Pirate cXc is a show-and-go style, no red tape B.S., no license required type deal. All courses are designed to reach epic status; we don’t want any girly-boys at these races. Expect to get your ass handed to you.

Dates and times coming soon. Courses will not be available for preview until race night. All participants will meet, gear-up then do a neutral roll-in to the course. One-lap pre-ride then it’s time for racing. There may or may not be separate classes. There may or may not be a time bonus for obstacles completed (in the saddle). There will be awards. There will be shenanigans. Winter is a time for getting crazy…and that’s exactly what we plan to do.
Are you game?
