  • Mass start and gravity race registration fees will be increased to $15. Each promoter will pay a $1/unique rider/day surcharge to the conference at the conclusion of their event, including non-collegiate racers and categories. Note that this is slightly different than the proposed per-start surcharge, but as discussed and accepted at the meeting, works out to roughly equivalent numbers and is more similar in scheme to other surcharges. For the time being this will only be applied to Road and MTB seasons; Track and Cyclocross will be exempt until more collegiate-oriented events and/or seasons are developed.

  • Women's Intro will be expanded to include non-collegiate women racing on 1-days or first time Cat 4 licenses.
