Registration for North Bend Multi Cross*
*Registration for the North Bend site will be live soon.  Bookmark this page and set a reminder to recheck it!

  • Description: Multicross is an exciting new event based on the traditional triathlon swim, bike, run model but with an exciting new twist... Cyclocross! In an effort to provide fun new challenges to the athletes along with providing a much more entertaining spectator sport we have combined swimming, Cyclocross and trail running. If you have ever been to a Cyclocross race you will know what we mean by spectator friendly. There are other off-road triathlon events out there which utilize mountain bikes but the delta between road biking and mountain biking for both rider and retail industry is broad. Our intention with leveraging Cyclocross for the bike leg is to draw upon the existing bike handling skills the athletes already have as well as allow existing bike and triathlon stores to leverage their existing expertise and shops to accommodate the sport. Cyclocross is one of the fastest growing sports in the world right now and it's circuit format means lots of eye candy for the folks in the beer and wine garden! If you are ready for a new challenge or just enjoy getting dirty come on out and join us in the great city of North Bend for the inaugural Multicross North Bend race!
