HAPPY HALLOWEEN
Trick or Treat....
Keeping it fun was the continuing theme over the weekend for Nor-Cal Cyclocross with two races in Fresno and
the Surf City event at Aptos High School.
Special thanks to Aptos High Principal, and stellar all- around cyclists Casey O'Brien for his commitment to Cyclocross racing for both Juniors & Adults.
The Surf City courses at Aptos High School are always memorable and demanding! David Gill, Jeff Clark, Mike Evans, Team Santa Cruz, and a host of other volunteers keep Surf City fun and challenging for all.
Congratulations on a great event!

Fresno's "Lou-Fest"
$500 Cash payout for Elite Men riders at the famous "Lou Fest" Night Cyclocross Race equals big smiles for the top 5 overall...
Bruno Pitton, Jeremiah Root, Steve Ray, Keith DeFiebre, John Stewart.
The "Lou Fest" truly is a classic Cross race in the NCNCA.
It is with out a doubt one of the most
technically demanding courses on the Nor-Cal circuit.
Mix in darkness, heckler crazy drama, Belgium Beer flowing, mandatory lights required for each racer , and more off camber sections then you can shake a Witches Broom at, and you get a real night Cyclocross race where good times are had by all.
