Seacoast VeloKids and Orchard Cross Cyclocross Race
Seacoast VeloKids is proud to be the parent organization for Orchard Cross - New England's favorite cyclocross race.
Orchard Cross is a one-day cyclocross racing event at Applecrest Farm Orchards in Hampton Falls, NH. Annually, over 800 pro and amateur racers of all ages and skill levels participate in the race, making it the second largest race of its kind in all of New England. We anticipate over 1000 spectators will also be on hand to watch the racers navigate the challenging course. Our racer and spectators represent a wide demographic range and our event is very strong with ourdoor oriented and active people with a large number of families attending.
Cyclocross is a unique form of bike racing held on a multi-surface track that often includes sections of grass, dirt, mud and gravel. Racers navigate the course while tackling a variety of obstacles, at times dismounting and carrying their bikes as they jump and climb over rock walls, spans of water or fallen trees that have been incorporated into the track. The unique format makes for exciting racing and lively, fun atmosphere for riders and spectators. |
