How the Cross Country Series works

This series is designed for racers who are used to off road racing as well as Motocross racers. Because motorcycles do NOT need any timekeeping or lighting equipment motocross racers are encouraged to participate. As long as motorcycles are 96db or less you can race.

The events are 1.5 to 2.5 hours long depending on the class your riding so you get lots of saddle time. You line up at the start with your class for a dead engine start. Classes are released one minute apart with the fastest groups leaving first. You wear an electronic transponder and each lap, which are usually 10 -20 minutes long, you go through the scoring tower and can see where you are currently placed. You have the opportunity to go through the pits for fuel or repairs each lap but it will slow you down. An oversized fuel tank is a definite advantage. Once the time limit is reached riders coming through the timing towers are told they are done. Winner is determined by number of laps completed in least amount of time.

Ross Rocher Sales and Apex Cycle Sports are sponsoring the timing system. Each rider will need to purchase an electronic transponder for $40. When purchased you will recieve a $20 gift certificate from each of these sponsors making them FREE.

This new series promoted by WEC, will be sanctioned by the Canadian Motorsports Racing Club who also sanction the premier Motocross Series in Canada. The partnership with the CMRC demonstrates the co operative nature of the MCC Competition Working Group and exemplifies the unification that is happening within Canadian motorcycle competition.

Through our partnership with the CMRC, WEC is looking forward to attracting many of the talented motocross racers in Ontario to test themselves on these courses that will combine MX tracks with woods and grass track sections.

To compete in the series a CMRC Cross Country competition license will be required. CMRC Motocross licenses will also be accepted so these riders will not need a separate license to try out Cross County racing. In addition, off-road riders looking to try out CMRC Motocross need only to upgrade their Cross Country license to a full CMRC license for an additional $50.
