By entering in to SouthernCross CX event you agree to adhere to the rules:
- Don't be a dick. We're all here to have fun so please don't mess with other people's enjoyment of the day. We're all friends here.
- Your bike must be safe to ride. You must have at least one working brake.
- Ride within your ability. The courses are set out so that you shouldn't be able to ride every feature. Make sure you're comfortable with the course layout before racing.
- Stay in the tape and go over the obstacles as designed, see rule 1.
- Use appropriate cycling kit. While clothes are optional (and highly recommended), undamaged helmets and sturdy footwear are required.
- If you see someone injured or in need of help, please stop and assist them. Look out for each other and you'll most likely be rewarded with beer.
- Keep off the course when other races are on. There will be time for you to try out the course between races.
- Race in the grade that challenges you, no-one likes a burglar.
- If the organizers think you're causing problems, we have full discretion to remove you from the race without a refund.
