CX Sherbrooke was named best cyclocross event of 2017 by Cycling Canada. The course, located on the waterfront of Sherbrooke’s Lac des Nations, features a great mix of everything cyclocross is about: deep ruts, steep run-ups, off-cambers, stairs, hills and descents plus many high-speed sections.

The event is partnered by local the Siboire microbrewery, which is preparing a new version of its unique Belgian IPA. La déraillée will be brewed by none other than cyclocross legend Tim Johnson!

All cyclists are also welcomed at the Siboire on Saturday night for a great night talking bikes surrounded by tasteful food and beer.
