Castlemaine Cycling Club is once again proudly hosting round two of the AusCycling State Cyclo-Cross (CX) Series this Sunday June 21, attracting riders from across Victoria.
For those new to it, Cyclo-Cross (CX) is a fast, muddy, and action-packed style of racing that combines road racing, mountain biking, and obstacle navigation — all on a short, technical course.
The 2025 event marked a new direction for Castlemaine Cycling Club, which has traditionally focused on road and track racing. By embracing CX, the club aimed to bring fresh cycling experiences to the local community and the inaugural event did just that. It was a huge success attracting 110 riders.
The 2026 competition proudly supported by Belle Property Castlemaine will once again take place at Campbells Creek Recreation Reserve with the Campbells Creek Reserve Committee and the Campbells Creek Football Netball Club providing essential support to make the day a success.
Sunday’s event will kick off at 8am with registrations and run through until 4pm.
The round will feature races for all levels, from open-entry events and balance bike races for juniors, right up to the men’s and women’s elite fields.
