Are You Planning to Race at the Masters World Championships?

It has come to our attention that the UCI will be enforcing their eligibility rules at Masters Track World Championships that deal with Elite status. Therefore, we want to remind everyone that if you are planning on racing Masters Track World Championships, you CAN NOT race at the Elite Track Championships at the Home Depot Center next week. Anyone on the official start sheet for Elite Track Nationals will be considered an elite rider and will be ineligible to compete in the Masters World Championship.

Anyone who has registered for this event in error who is planning on going to the Masters World Championships can request a full refund before online registration closes at 11:59 p.m. on September 22. Please email tmahoney@usacycling.org before this time to be officially removed from the start list and receive a full refund minus the processing fee.
