The US Cyclocross Series (USCX) returns for a third season with eight races at four signature events on the east coast this fall, with elite riders vying for a $15,000 prize purse for a second time.
Virginia’s Blue Ridge Go Cross presented by Fat Tire will kick off the series on September 16-17, followed by Rochester Cyclocross in New York on September 23-24 and Charm City CX in Baltimore, Maryland, September 30-October 1. The series concludes October 28-29 in Falmouth, Massachusetts at the Really Rad Festival of Cyclocross.
Elite fields will split the purse equally, $7,500 for both women and men, once the final races are completed in Falmouth on October 29. Carolina Mani won in 2022, while Curtis White took the male title along with the main prize.
"Our goal with USCX has always been to host four weekends of premier racing for both elite and amateur athletes," said Scott Page, series co-founder and executive director for Rochester Cyclocross. "Cyclocross is so exciting to watch and we want to give these incredible athletes a platform on which to shine. We believe integrating these four events into the USCX Series does that."
