Information:
Cat. 4 and Cat. 4 35+ (men and women) will race together as one category, with a second set of prizes and results for the 35+ riders.
Riders entering the Elite Women, U23 Women, Elite Men, and U23 Men races MUST have a UCI/USCF International license. UCI rules apply. No flat bars or tires wider than 33mm. A domestic USA Cycling license is acceptable for other categories, and are run under USAC permit. Mountain bikes without bar ends are allowed in USAC classes.
This race is part of the Eastern Collegiate Cycling Conference (ECCC) Cyclocross Series. If you are a current full-time student at an ECCC school, you are eligible for competition in the series. Collegiate riders race within the Men's Elite, 3, or Cat 4 and Women's Elite and 3/4 races and will be scored both within those fields and within their corresponding collegiate categories. To be eligible for collegiate scoring, riders must register under their proper collegiate team name and race in their collegiate team kit.
For separate starts, groups are staged with a gap, stay where they are on the line, and are started at 60-second intervals.
Riders in UCI events will be staged by UCI ranking, then by random drawing of lots. Riders in USAC events will be staged by Verge NECCS standings if applicable, then crossresults.com rankings, then order of registration.
Elite Men's prizes have 2% deducted from the prize list for the UCI Riders' Contribution to the Fight Against Doping.
