Race 4: Saturday, October 31, 2015 at Lakeside Church

Races 4 & 5 are part of a double-header weekend in Folsom.
Learn more about special hotels rates for racers, and other fun things we have in store.

Located on E. Bidwell and Oak Avenue Pkwy, Lakeside Church's 27 acre property puts cyclocross racing front and center in Folsom for all to see. Racers will see plenty of typical Sacramento Cyclocross features with wide open fields, off camber grassy hillsides and a big paved start. Plus, Lakeside's terraced steps will be one of the biggest run-ups we have all season.

We have some incredibly talented staff who are working hard to come up with fun props for the Halloween race course.

Share a photo with the tag #saccxhalloween on Facebook or Instagram and we'll give the best/funnest/most clever shot a prize package of Michael David Winery wine, Yolo Brewing Company beer, and a Brush-x!

Course length: 2.2 miles

Elevation gain per lap: 178 feet/lap

Course direction: Counter clockwise

Bibs: On the left

Course description: This 28 acre property has everything needed for a classic cyclocross course. Each lap starts on an asphault descent to an open gravel lot, letting you keep the speed high before weaving through loose gravel and trimmed native vegetation. After climbing back up to the top of the hill on pavement, you're greeted with grassy off-camber turns before the terraced run-up. Recover on the asphalt descent before powering through the lower grass field and back to the finish.
