From the event website:
Cross Vegas is a CycloCross off-road event. It is run over a technical course featuring grass, mud, sand and obstacles – all on a bike that’s not too far from a road bike.

The course will be a lap of ~2km starting in the centre of the Fiesta Village and then looping around Lancefield Park, combining some of the unique natural features of the surrounding landscape.
Depending on which race you decide on, you will complete several laps before finishing back in the Fiesta Village.
The best thing about Cyclo-Cross is that it’s fun. This will not be an officially sanctioned race, but closer to an exhibition where it’s all about getting you involved. It’s traffic-free and safe for kids, so it is a great place to bring the little ones and get them started.
This is a great chance to get stuck into a new and exciting CX race, or just to have a go at CX in the newcomer’s category if you haven’t already raced.
If you have a bike, bring it along and give it a try. It doesn’t matter if you bring a CX, gravel or MTB as long as you bring the good vibes!
You do NOT need an AusCycling race membership to ride this.
