Napa's premiere XC course and home to the Skyline Classic and UCD/UCB Collegiate race.
The most technical of the Crusher Cups, Skyline still has plenty of fast trail sections. There will be an easier course for beginners and middle school but bring your A-game!

Home to the Rattler XC and NICA races.
What can we say? Currently Marin's only full XC venue (shout out to the Summit and Stafford Shorties!).
The Crusher Cup will seek to build a course different from the Rattler and NICA races.

GREAT TIMES!
Fast, blazing fast. That said, we have maximized the climbing with 570ft per 5-mile lap. While there is nothing notably technical, the course features the best features we could find!
SEE YOU AT LAKE SONOMA!
Lake Sonoma @ Lone Rock
Crusher Cup Lake Sonoma Starts at the top of the course - unorthodox for an XC race. We emphasize putting together a course altogether different with a wide range of terrain. The course will also break-up the climbs into manageable pieces by using both sides of the mountain.

Experience the sweetness for Santa Cruz's hidden gem and premiere XC venue.
DeLa is a truly beautiful combination of terrain - from fast hard pack, to flowing curves, to roots and rocks. The course features a single main climb on double-track/fire road with plenty of passing space, while the rest of the course is pure singletrack.
If you haven't visited - you will not want to miss this!

New to XC racing or just want to brush up on skills and techniques?
We are pleased to announce the women and girls MTB skills clinic and course preride with skills coach Jessica Tseng at DeLaveaga Park on June 22 @ 2:30PM. It is not required that you race on Sunday to attend the clinic, simply sign-up below.
The DeLaveaga is a course well suited for learning skills that will improve confidence on the trails! The clinic is designed to empower female riders, whether you're a seasoned cyclist or just getting started. We'll cover various topics to help you improve your racing skills, boost your confidence, and find your edge on the trails.
This clinic is a fantastic opportunity to connect with like-minded women and gain valuable knowledge.
Following the clinic, at 4 PM there will be a Women's group preride with Jessica and UCSC Cycling President Justine McOuat.
This opportunity allows you to familiarize yourself with the race course, providing a competitive advantage for Sunday's race (if you are racing).
Remember to bring your helmet and cycling gear.
See you out there!
