Sacramento Cyclocross is a grassroots race series, and as such you can walk-up on race day, signup for whichever category you feel best suits your ability and go race your heart out. There is no license required to participate in the Sacramento Cyclocross series.
Generally, “C” = Beginner; “B” = Intermediate; “A” = Expert; and “Single Speed” = Crazy person. (Just kidding on the single speed. Kinda.) We leave it up to you to choose the category that best fits your ability. Please note that choosing a category based on a start time that is convenient to your schedule is not a valid reason to race outside of your level.
Mandatory Upgrades: If you are crushing it in a certain category, we reserve the right to congratulate you on your success and require you to upgrade to the next logical category. We take into consideration your average lap times in comparison to your current field as well as the category above you. This policy ensures good, strong, fair competition in each category.
‘A’ Category Race Policy: For our ‘A’ level categories: We adopt the UCI’s policies on gender participation, as well as equipment requirements (with a few exceptions). Specifics can be viewed on our FAQs page.
Our 2024 race day schedule has been optimized for you to race twice in a day if you so choose! If you like to double your SacCX fun with a second race of the day in addition to your primary category, please visit the registration tent to register. You can use your same RFID chip and race number!
Note: You must visit registration to sign up for a second race of the day – there is not a place to do it online.
If you choose to race in two categories of different skill levels (i.e. B and C), you will be listed as “Did Not Place” in results in the lower skill level category. Exceptions may be made at the Race Director’s discretion. If you have questions, please send us an email at community@clippedinforlife.org.
Instructions for returning your 2024 RFID chip by March 1, 2025 for a full refund.
