For the unitiated, let’s give you a quick primer/introduction to cyclocross. Instead of words, I’ll just let some pictures do the talking.

Add it all up and somehow you get cyclocross! Just watch single speed and you’ll understand that last photo…

But what about Friday Night Racing!?!

Don’t you worry, track purist! Friday Night Racing is on this week. Want to race the track the right way? Show up with plenty of registration and warm-up time before our racing gets underway at 7:00 PM. As usual, the evening is complimented nicely by our beverage garden featuring Mac & Jack’s delicious beers and OS Winery’s fantastic wines. 

Most importantly, THE SPECTATOR FEE IS GONE FOR THE REST OF SEPTEMBER!  Free spectator entrance is a pretty cool thing. 

The racing this week includes Madisons and Sprints, so don’t miss out on the fun.

Wait a sec, this was about Starcrossed!?!

Right, back to the focus of the article… For Starcrossed, the most important things to note are the following:

  1. The track will still host racing this Friday night the 12th.
  2. Starcrossed will occupy the track all day Saturday the 13th and there will be no open track time for the entirety of Saturday.
  3. They will be cleaned up and out of Marymoor before Sunday, so open track should resume per usual the following day.

Interested in attending? The Deschutes Brewery Beer Garden opens up at 3:00 PM, so maybe that would be a good time to shoot for. The beer garden is front and center in the action and surrounded on every side with racing. 

Interested in racing? Pre-registration ONLY! No day of. Please check out their website and get signed up before spots fill up. Here’s the direct link to pre-registration through BikeReg.

See you at the track!
