Organiser's Description
You bring your buds, we'll bring the suds! The Go Cross Beer Mile returns to Virginia's Blue Ridge Go Cross presented by Fat Tire at Fallon Park on Saturday September 16, 2023 at 2:15pm.
Happening just before the livestreamed elite cyclocross races, this beer mile is a team relay race with 4 parts beer and 4 parts running. It is designed to raise the vibe and get everyone ready to cheer (& heckle) for the pros. Prizes will be provided by RunAbout Sports to the top team and for the team with the best costumes. This year's the theme is The 80's: The Good, the Bad, and the Vice! So, think Crockett and Tubbs and go big, bold, tight, and stylish!
