2017 USA Cycling Cyclocross National Championships Schedule, Information, Dates, Registration

People have been asking us about details of 2017 Cyclocross National Championships, and USA Cycling has released some preliminary information including the schedule and registration date.

The race for registration starts Monday, but with governing body’s ranking system to determine start positions, there’s not the same race to register first that we used to see years ago.

The events start on January 2, 2017. We’ve noticed a few changes. Collegiate races have been moved from Friday to Wednesday. The industry races return but the infamous, crowd-pleasing donut race is missing (but we’ll be so close to so many Dunkin Donuts!).  Surprisingly, the Junior 9-10 categories are missing (see USA Cycling’s rationale for eliminating the youngest Junior racing here), as is the Kid Cross race (one of our favorite events from Asheville and Austin, and we’ve reached out to USA Cycling to find out about this change). There are new opportunities for the youth however, as there’s a new clinic for racers 14 and under on Saturday and Sunday.

See the full schedule below and an ever-growing collection of essential Nationals information on our 2017 USA Cycling Cyclocross National Championships page here.
