Club Spinistry Thursday XC Racing

The DFW Summer Series is taking a break from racing on 7/8 and 7/15. We have a 7/8 training race planned for those who still want to scratch that weekday XC racing itch. If 7/8 isn't viable due to weather/trail conditions we will reschedule to 7/15.

This is FREE for Club Spinistry members! Not sure you will get full value from joining Club Spinistry? We will be hosting other free XC events for members ongoing including a true weekend XC Xtravaganza on Saturday, 8/28 (more details soon).

This weekday race training at River Legacy will be in the traditional XC format, not short track. The race loop will be all of the River Legacy trail excluding EKG and Fun Town. Yes, the new Ridge Loop will be included which makes each lap about 9.75 miles actual. Course will be marked but we highly recommend preriding it to be familiar with the cufoffs and bypasses needed.

Results and awards will be based on participation. Spinistry Racing Groups are gender and age neutral. First level of awards will be based on Top 3 Overall for the the Group/Distance. Any group with more than 15 participants will be further split into age and gender groups as allowed by number of signups in each gender and/or age. Basically, the more people who signup, the more awards categories available.

How to determine your appropriate Spinistry Race Group:

We've been working on a category model based on racing speeds. We call them Spinistry Racing Groups. We are working with a limited data set so far but it will flesh out over time. Basically, find the people you know who are comparable to you in skillset and race in that category if you haven't been assigned to a group yet.
