How to Find Upcoming Cycling Events on Ontario Cycling

Updated

Ontario Cycling lists upcoming races and series events directly on its homepage under the Upcoming Events section, with each entry showing the event name and start time. From there, the All Events link opens the full calendar. This works for anyone browsing publicly — no account is mentioned as required to view the listings.

Where the event listings live

The homepage (ontariocycling.org) includes an Upcoming Events block that previews the next few happenings, followed by an « All Events link. The preview is a snapshot; the All Events view is where you go to see beyond the next handful of dates.

Each preview entry follows the same format:

  • Event name
  • Date
  • Start and end time

What the homepage currently shows

Based on the site's event block, the listed events include:

Event Date Time
Hardwood Wednesday Night CX Series September 23 6:00 pm – 9:30 pm
Nordic Cats Cross Club CX Weekly Series September 23 7:00 pm – 8:00 pm
Midweek CX Series September 24 6:30 pm – 9:00 pm
Hardwood Fall Epic 8 Hour September 26 —
Biking for Burnham September 26 —

Two patterns are worth noting. First, several of these are series rather than one-off races — the Wednesday Night CX Series, the Nordic Cats weekly series, and the Midweek CX Series all imply recurring dates, so a single listing doesn't tell you the whole schedule. Second, multiple events can fall on the same day (September 23 and September 26 each carry two), so check times rather than just dates if you're planning to attend or participate.

Steps to find an event

  1. Go to ontariocycling.org.
  2. Scroll to the Upcoming Events section on the homepage.
  3. Read the event name, date, and time for each entry.
  4. Select « All Events to open the complete event list.
  5. For series events, confirm the specific date you want within the series rather than assuming the listed date is the only one.

Expected result: you end up with a specific event, date, and time you can plan around.

Common snags

  • Series vs. single events. A listing like "Wednesday Night CX Series" points to a recurring program. The date shown is the next occurrence, not the full run.
  • Same-day overlaps. Two events on September 26 means you may need to choose, or check whether one is a spectator event and the other a participation event.
  • Time zones. Times are listed without a zone label; assume local Ontario time when planning travel.
  • Registration details aren't in the preview. The homepage block shows name, date, and time only. Whether an event requires a licence, membership, or entry fee isn't stated there — check the individual event page or the All Events listing for that.

Staying informed beyond the calendar

Ontario Cycling also offers newsletters via a Subscribe here! link, and the site carries a News section (recent items include team spotlights). If you want event announcements pushed to you rather than checking the calendar manually, the newsletter is the route the site itself points to.
