The Midweek Cycling Club is proud to present a weekend of UCI C2 Cyclocross action November 10th and 11th at Centennial Park in Toronto, Ontario. Located minutes from Pearson Int'n Airport. Centennial Park has a long history of great cyclocross racing. This year we are introducing 2 distinctly different courses. Both are fast and technical.

Both day will offer full UCI point and prize money for Elite men and Women, with a total of $4200 up for grabs. New this year, Master 1 Men (elite masters) will be racing for the same 1st place prize money as Elite Men. That's $460 each day for first place masters, with cash prizes to fifth place. There is a combined total of over $1600 for both days. Races are offered for all categories, and with the current strength of the Canadian dollar, it's worth the drive.

Back for the second year is our popular Schools Cyclocross Championship. On Saturday November 10th. Open to all male and female racers in grades 5 through 12. Start time is 1:45pm on a modified short course. Sponsored by the Ontario Potato Farmers.

You can also enjoy the race day festivities from a course-side seat, in the Amsterdam Brewery sponsored beer tent. Located right in front of the double barriers. For more information go to www.midweekclub.ca.
