Sunday Relay

If you plan on attending Sunday’s relay, make sure you have your team ready when registering. Student athletes can ride with parents or non-team riders.

(Details and images from PICL website)

Sunday offers a non-NICA event that is a fundraiser for the PA League open to everyone! The International Intergalactic Global Open Cyclocross Relay of the Mulit-Frigging Verse is every bit as fun and whacky as it sounds. IIGOx is four hours of fun riding with a team of up to four racers on a course that is a mix of very fast fun single track and wide open farm roads.  And there is a slip-n-slide.

Riders switch off every lap and gain points for their team based on their start points and the laps. One hundred percent of event proceeds are going to the PA league. Whether or not you can join for the Adventure Overnight, we hope you’ll join for the IIGOx fun as a way to have a great day, get in some fast fun riding, and help us raise some funds for the league! IIGOx is open to everyone so coaches, parents, and all your riding friends can be part of this one too!
