Course

If you’re not sure what Cyclocross is, “a good description is a bike race mixed with steeplechase. In cyclocross, riders race laps around a short course that usually features some pavement, some dirt, some woods, some steep hills and for good measure, some obstacles thrown in that require riders to dismount, work their way through and then get back on and ride some more.” (Bicycling Magazine)

In a sense, you might think of it as a different type of dirt crit.
