For those that are riding, 80% of the course will be ridable, with the rest consisting of natural obstacles like creeks and fallen trees combined with man-made barriers like flights of stairs and low fences.
Mud, dont forget the mud! Riding through a section of mud is not something to be frowned upon, in fact its a crowd favorite. This is Cyclocross.
