LangeTwins Winery is a favorite venue in the Sacramento Cyclocross calendar, and is back again for 2018 and back in November! Cooler temps and the chance of mud mean the fun factor will be high. There are some run-ups and great off camber hills, and the crew at LangeTwins always takes hosting to a whole new level. Look for another great course with contributions from pro cyclist Cody Kaiser, and wine tasting for those 21+ in The Press Room.
Note: This race was originally scheduled on Saturday, November 17 but was moved due to unhealthy air quality as a result of the Camp fire in Butte County.
Getting There
LangeTwins Winery is located south of Sacramento off of Highway 99.
Address to use for directions: 1525 East Jahant Road, Acampo, CA 95220

Parking

What can families do?
The Press Room will be open for wine tastings for those 21 years and older.
What is there to eat?
We'll start the morning off with espresso and drip coffee available to purchase from House of Coffees.

And of course, the most important part - complimentary LangeTwins Family Winery and Vineyards wine tasting.
What if I don't have a CX bike?
Amaincycling.com has you covered! They are bringing a demo fleet of Specialized Crux Expert (carbon!) cyclocross bikes out to the races this year. It's $40 for a single race, or $75 for the whole day to borrow this $4,700 bike... and you won't even have to clean it when you're done! They have sizes 52, 54, 56, & 58. Call Evan at (530) 815-4311 to reserve your bike in advance.
2016 Course preview: http://youtu.be/j2o0Hez036E We will have to the course slightly since more tanks have been installed in parts of last year's course, but this should give you a sense.

The usual features like the flyover, stairs, and off camber levy all return with the addition of a few challenging false flat climbs, soft turns and a sand pit.
Race support: Pete Tipshus, owner of Happy Trails Mechanical Support and long-time supporter of Sacramento Cyclocross, will be out at this race if you have a last-minute bike crisis. If you take advantage of his help, please send a little love his way since he donates his time, skills and supplies to support our races.
