Registration:
For 2022 registration for all OVCX events will be Pre-Registration only, with the exception of the two UCI weekends (Kings & Major Taylor). Pre-registration for all OVCX events will be through BikeReg.com. Pre-registration will close at 6pm Friday night before each event (again, for non-UCI events). It will be possible to register for a second race on race day, if you have already pre-registered for a race.
Please note that the 2 week deadline for premium call-ups will still be in place. So, for optimum start line staging, register early (see “Start Line Staging” below for details).
Chip Timing:
Chip timing will not be in place for OVCX events (excluding UCI events). We hope to bring this back for 2022.
Start Line Staging:
All categories scheduled to start at the same time will go off in one wave, with individual categories intermixed. All waves will be staged by their CrossResults.com points. Each wave will be staged in the following order:
1) First: Anyone registered by midnight of the Sunday 2 weeks prior to event weekend
2) Second: Anyone registered by 6 pm the day before the event.
This system will work for all combined categories going off the starting line at the same time. Again, each category will get scored separately as well, and get a podium celebration each day as well as OVCX series points for their category. NOTE: Cincy CX Weekend and Major Taylor weekend will not utilize the 2 week bump. Item #1 above will not apply to those weekends.
Results:
Full results will be posted to USA Cycling within 24 hrs of completion of the event, and posted to OVCX.com within 48 hours of the event. Categories will be broken out for OVCX series scoring only; USAC results will have the full wave results (for higher potential USAC ranking points).
OVCX Series Points:
Top 3 finishers for each category at the end of the season are recognized at the awards party after the final race at John Bryan State park in Yellow Springs, OH on November 21st. Each race participant earns points, and their best 5 finishes are calculated for their overall score at the end of the season. EXCEPTION: Elite Men and Elite women will only count 4 of their results toward the series total. This is due to the number of UCI races where points are not awarded.
Public Health & Safety:
Specific public health and safety guidelines that apply to all series events will be posted to both the OVCX Facebook Page and Instagram account. In addition, individual events will have health and safety information available on their Bikereg event pages, and social media accounts. It is your responsibility as a participant to understand the health and safety guidelines for each event you attend. Let’s stay safe, keep each other healthy, and have a great time racing CX in the Ohio Valley this fall!
