Were back, better than ever, and ready to get some racing going! First race goes down on Tuesday June 5th and we’ll be racing for four weeks again this year. Same schedule as previous years with first race at 6:30 for about 40 minutes and second race at 7:20 going until dark.
Update for 2018! We’re working to put together a kid’s option at Hell X with the help of Texas Cyclocross Project! Kids and juniors are always welcome to run the full races at Hell X, but racing for 45 (or 70) minutes can be tough, especially for newer riders. With that in mind we’ve teamed up with Mike and the gang to put together a shorter, and of course still free, option for our newer juniors. More details to come as we get closer to June.
Keep putting in the base miles and we’ll see you in a few months!
The season if officially over and it’s time to celebrate. Come join us at Austin Tri Cyclist Dec 12th at 6pm to finish the season of right. Series awards for the Austin Tri Cyclist Open Race will be given out around 8pm. See you there!
Yup, end of the season already. Our final race of the 2017 Dirt Derby is this Tuesday, Nov 28th. We’ll be following the usual schedule.

Hey Dirt Derby people, TWO more races left this season! Tuesday November 21st and Tuesday November 28th.
We’ll be running a modified schedule on Nov 21st. Beginner race and Austin Tri Cyclist Open Race will go off per usual schedule, but the Intermediate MTB & Tom Mahnke Realty Intermediate CX will be combined into one long (45ish min) relay starting at 7:00. Relay teams will consist of two racers alternating laps. One person will do the MTB course and one person will do the CX course. $10 per team ($5/person) & BYOB (Bring your own baton, feel free to be creative). If you don’t have a partner don’t worry, we’ll assign you one at the time of the race.
See you Tuesday!
