In preparation for Cressy Descent 2022, the club are keen to let you know about some key changes regarding race categories and entry caps, which are changes to our previous Cressy format. ![]()

Event entry cap:![]()
As much as we would love everyone to enter Cressy Descent, we have set a rider cap ![]()
to run Cressy both safey and smoothly. This cap is based on our previous events and with current races around the state. Your safety is our number one priority, and we will not be going over this cap. ![]()
![]()
We will be initially capping all categories equally to make sure everyone has a fair shot at entering. The club will reassess once we have an idea of rider numbers across the board. If numbers are low across certain categories, we will be opening up more spaces in other categories. ![]()

Stay tuned for more updates in the coming weeks, including more info on when entries will open, and how we will keep you up to date on category entries.
