Pittock Conservation Area, Woodstock ON

We had a small but hardy Team heading to Woodstock for this 3 event in the 2026 Cyclocross O’Cup Series. Unusually, the first race had the best conditions.

Scott came 5th and Jan came 7th in Cat C.

Then it started to rain, and continued for the rest of the day, the 4 sand sections became slightly more ridable, everything else got much worse - a bunch of the small hills turned into runups, the off cambers were treacherous. Remounting uphill was impossible. The start turned into a lake - kids were kicking drainage ditches in it, but that of course made the stuff downhill much worse.

Judy was 3rd and Toni was 4th in Masters women 35-55.
Judy was 5th in Single Speed.

Devin came but he forgot to sign up (yikes). We tried to get him registered, but Uplifter (registration site) continued to be buggy and wouldn't let him. He decided it was the universe looking out for him - he didn't want to race in that much rain and mud anyway (likely a wise decision).
