CCCX #1 This Sunday at Manzanita Park + 3 New Categories

Addendum to the the previous CCCX PR

3 new catagories have been added to the CCCX Series: C Women, B Single Speed, and Master 55+ Divisions.



NorCal Cyclocross racing action heats up this weekend with race #1 of the Central Coast Cyclocross Series held at Manzanita Park in Prunedale. This race course has hosted the NCNCA District Cross Championships in 2000, and is a great place to compete, and enjoy the racing action. The race route will be similar to years past, with pavement, dirt, sand, and grass sections featured. There will also be a little single track mixed in with a steep run up to apply pain and pressure to NorCal's talented group of Cyclocross racing fanatics.

Medals will be awarded to top finishers in each group, along with some choice strawberries provided by CCCX sponsor Cal Giant Strawberry Inc. Elite Women, Elite Men, and Master 35+ A Men will be racing for an instant cash payout to top three at the finish. Master 45+ A Men will also be presented an instant cash payout if there are over 20 racers in the group.

The Prunedale event starts back to back weekends of Cross racing for the Central Coast Series. The following sunday, October 1st, race #2 of the CCCX series will take place at the East Garrison portion of Ft Ord in Monterey. This area of the former Army Base has also hosted the NCNCA District Cross Championships in 1999, and is a popular venue for cycle racing. Following the two CCCX events these next two weekends are 7 straight weekends of either Bay Area Super Prestige races, or Surf City races. Race #3 of the CCCX series will be taking place on Nov. 26.

Be sure and bring some sun screen as the weather is going to be seasonably warm and there is no rain expected........ although, rumor has it that there will be sprinklers turned on for some water distribution to simulate foul weather conditions. This is the 9th season of Cyclocross racing for the Central Coast Series. This coming sunday's event at Manzanita Park will be Cross race #51 presented by the CCCX series for Northern California's Cyclocross racers. The CCCX promoters would like to thank everyone who has attended these events and strapped up their helmets to give it a go! CCCX would also like to thank its sponsors- Fox Racing Shox, Ritchey, Cal Giant Strawberry Inc., Hot Shoppe Design Factory, Family Cycling Center, Scotts
