Port of Cascade Locks
Cascade Locks, Oregon
Event sanctioned by the Oregon Bicycle Racing Association
This year, USA Cycling has offered to score two entire OBRA Cyclocross races in its national ranking system.
Cascade Locks Day 1 is one of them!
With very few opportunities to score ranking points on the West Coast this year, racers with the goal of racing at USA Cycling Cyclocross National Championships are having to travel great distances to improve their ranking or accept the reality that they will be starting in one of the back rows. This is an opportunity to grab some points locally!
