WEXCR 23 Tower Ridge XC R5-flyer1 Date copy

We are so excited to bring you guys to a brand new facility for our series as we kickoff Rd#5 this coming SUNDAY July 16th at the “Tower Ridge XC” located just outside of Belpre, OH!! This property has never been raced on yet, so we have another blank canvas to do our thing to bring you guys another sweet WEXCR original layout! Expect to see plenty of elevation changes, a few tighter technical areas as well as some faster grass track sections and an optional “Pro-Hill Climb” just a short walk from one of the parking fields! We definitely have a lot of work ahead of us clearing tons of brush to build this trail system so hopefully later this week we’ll have some track maps posted for you all, stay tuned!

The parking area at this facility is excellent with easy off the road access and plenty of level areas for campers but  **Friday night camping will not be permitted at this event! Gates will open Saturday at noon!**

As always there is no extra charge for primitive camping and just as a reminder gates close at 11pm Sat evening. See the bottom of this page for track address! 

Also we will now be having the strider/stacycs events at every round on the starting line right after the Adult Quads take off around 4:00pm! These will be special “exhibition” events for our little up and coming future racers that have striders and the battery powered stacycs. They will be broke down into separate events one for Striders and the other for the Stacycs. The track will consist of a small loop around our starting line area and this is not a competition event, its just for fun and to get our lil ones ready for future competition events when they can enter the peewee ranks. There is no sign up fee, (its FREE!) for this event, just show up at the start line area after the adult quads take off and await for instructions. All riders must have a bicycle style or full face helmet in order to participate!

Riders will be required to have a transponder which is used to record your laps and laps times when you come through the finish area. Our transponders are the stick on type which go on the back side of your helmet. The transponders are a one time cost of $10.00, sorry we cant rent them out per race. It will be a one time purchase and as long as you don’t damage it, lose it or switch helmets. If you already have one of these stick on style transponders from any other race series, you are good to go as long as it passes the reader test at registration. Also there is no such thing as a “annual renewal/programming fee” with us!
