Toonie XC Races
Popular events for adults and youth over aged 12 are the Toonie Rides.
Every second Wednesday from April - September we meet at a designated location, sign you up and time your ride for you. The cost is a mere $2 for SORCA members. At the end of the race you will definitely enjoy the great BBQ food and socializing. Races often take average riders 60 – 90 minutes depending on the length of the course. Expect some intermediate single track and if you are not comfortable riding some of the tricky spots, take your bike for a hike. A lot of riders use this weekly event as a training tool for the Test of Metal.
Check the calendar (link in top menu) for our upcoming Toonie Races.
SORCA Toonie races are open to SORCA members only. There is a one-day race fee of $22 for non-members.
