The entire 2018 Canadian cyclocross calendar all in one place

In some parts of Canada, the cyclocross season is already underway while it’s still a couple of weeks away in most Canadian provinces. In parks across the country, racers will get the chance to slip through mud, run up steep embankments, navigate sand pits and attempt to bunny hop barriers all to the sounds of cowbells and good old heckling.

Here is the 2018 Canadian cyclocross calendar province by province.
