Pros Cyclists Come To Broken Arrow For Ruts N Guts Cyclocross Races

Broken Arrow is gearing up for a weekend of bicycle racing. It's the growing sport of cyclocross, and athletes are braving the cold to ride at Chisholm Park.

Guts N' Ruts is underway now through Sunday at 101st East Avenue and the Creek Turnpike, or 4000 East New Orleans.

Athletes use a road bicycle modified with bigger front forks and knobby tires to navigate the course. They'll be on the road, in the dirt and over obstacles of all kinds.

Pros from all over world will race at 3 and 4 p.m. Saturday, but there are races all day.

Kids can ride for free at noon. They need to wear a helmet, according to race director Mike Guillen.
