CROSS
UPDATE - 2:45 pm Tues Sept 9th - SORRY, we are cancelling Renegade for tonight due to thunderstorms and lighting. We wanna keep everyone safe. Yes, we LOVE to ride in mud, but we don't wanna tear up the park so bad that it sucks for the rest of the season and for Capital City Cross. See everyone next Tuesday!
PLEASE join us for another season of Renegade Cyclocross Practices in Des Moines hosted by the BIKEIOWA.com Cycling Team.
All Practices will be held at Stone Park each Tuesday through the end of October. The course will be different each week.
Unless the ground is completely saturated with water or there is a big storm, practices will be held rain or shine.
Watch BIKEIOWA.com/CROSS, Facebook and Twitter for up-to-date info.
Renegade Cyclocross Practices are held AT YOUR OWN RISK!
RENEGADE CYCLOCROSS
This will be a training race, bike practice, or whatever else you kids want to call it. No entry fees, no prizes, no official results. Please understand the word "race" is used loosely.
What it WILL be is a great opportunity to get some intensity in, practice barriers, run-ups and other cyclocross skills and ride against guys of varying abilities. This makes it a GREAT chance for newer riders to gain some confidence and have some fun, while the experienced guys get a good workout and pass on some knowledge. Above all, it's a good reason to ride cross bikes with friends. Cool?
BEGINNERS WELCOME!

POST PRACTICE RECOVERY
After practice, we usually head over to Mullets or el Bait Shop for refreshments and food.
