Arctic Cross 4 and 5 - 24th and 25th September 2016 - lots of wet grass

Saturday was round 4 of the Arctic Cross series.  The course revisited an older location however it was a completely new course.  Lots of grass, some fun single track a little mud, pavement and a few bunny hop opportunities to keep everyone on their toes.

Sunday was round 5 of the series and visited a team favourite at Harvard Park in Government hill. The course as always had a mixture of grass, pavement and dirt, this year the runup was back.

Arctic Cross #1 - 10th September 2016 - Kincaid stadium

With a blue sky day we couldn't have asked for nicer conditions for the 2016 season opener for Arctic Cross. Yes we all love a bit of mud and rain but it was nice not to have to replace a drive train and brakes following one race. The course was based out of the stadium at Kincaid and had some fast sections, steep hills, long gradual hills and a couple of barriers including a tricky barrier section and remount on a side slope.
Revolution had 10 team members out racing and number of team mates/family members out supporting.
