Following Ontario’s Framework for Reopening: Stage 3, initiated on July 17, Blacksheep will begin to hold live, in-person events! Racing, trailbuilding, and group rides are back in action in a bi-weekly fashion. Here are all of the important details:

  • SEE THE NEW SCHEDULE ON THE -> EVENTS PAGE <-
  • The season will resume with “NEW XC#1” to be held on July 29 (Time Trial). More info can be found here.
  • Mass-start races will have participation caps of 60 (all categories).  These will be given on a first come, first-served basis for registration on Webscorer. Time Trials will be capped at 40 (Sport, Advanced, Elite). We will host a separate fun event for up to 20 Lambateurs (and you still need to register).
  • XC Races will happen every second Wednesday (see the new schedule).
  • Lambateur and MiniLamb will be run as separate events (but at the same time and location).
  • All races will be held at Kinsmen Park.
  • We will begin with Time Trial format (July 29) and then move to “Quad starts” and then Mass starts by category.
  • Unfortunately, we will not be holding Enduros or Race for the Cheese this season.
  • The FORTY MINER is scheduled for September 26.
  • Membership is required: all events are free for Racing Members and $15/race for General Members (cash only on race day). If you purchased a General Membership earlier in the year, you can upgrade on Webscorer by just paying the difference. Click here to upgrade.

We’re excited to be back! We ask for your patience as we deal with the gradual reopening of racing and group rides, and hope to see you out putting shovel to dirt as we hope to complete some of our unfinished trail-building business. See you out there.
