This weekend marked the festivities for the 10th Anniversary of the Atlantic Cycling Centre in Dieppe.

Last night 20 teams completed the first ever Cross Relay event in Dieppe. It was a fun event with male / female and mixed-family teams. The Atlantic Cycling Centre 10th anniversary banquet followed.

Around 50 rides were at the start line this morning despite rain, wind and cold for today’s Atlantic Cross Championchips. The weekend was a grand success!!

Thanks to the Atlantic Cycling Centre for hosting a great event and providing atlantic riders with support over the past 10 years!

Tonight will be the final of the 3 Tuesday night cross races in Dieppe. Race start is at 6pm to try to avoid too much darkness.

Tonight will also be the presentation of the MBS series points winners.
