Miscellaneous grass roots races near Albuquerque, NM
I
Runup at Atrisco01/04/25
1:30 PM Atrisco CX (note parking area change)
Very
informal CX in what I call the “Atrisco Bosque,” on the west side of
the Rio Grande, north of Central.
Parking is easiest on the west side of the Rio Grande bridge on Central, on the north side of the road, <Maps Placemark>
Course will be counterclockwise, mostly fast singletrack or doubletrack, with a 2-3 little runups and one very long runup, followed by a long sandy singletrack downhill. Course is about 2.8mi/4.5k and has some nice views. No grass to speak of, mostly hardpacked dirt with a little sandy dirt. Course marking will be minimal but adequate. We have done this course before, more or less, but it was a few years back.
We will do a full group preride lap at 1:30PM and then start at 1:50PM and go for 5 laps which will be about an hour. I was doing about 13 min laps on a recent preride.
No entry fee but if you could bring a voluntary contribution of say $15 that would be cool. Ride any bike you want. I will ride my CX bike with 40-45mm tires.
Please RSVP if you are coming so we know how many to expect.
1/25/26 1:30 PM Durand CX
Very informal CX on the Durand Open Space and the adjoining bosque. A mix of grass, sand, dirt, with some open sections and some singletrack. Durand is about a mile south of Rio Bravo on Isleta. <Maps Placemark>
Course is a large loop with several runups, most of them small. Course is a mix of grass, dirt road, singletrack, with some sandy sections. Some mud is possible. We might do a water section, if folks are OK with it. See bleow.
Big course probably only 3-4 laps.
