For the previous years we have implemented mandatory upgrades each week.
This year we went to only doing mandatory upgrades at the end of each month.
Here is the guideline. If you self upgrade please make sure you sesnd a note
to upgrades@obra.org so we can update your
account.

Cyclocross Categories and Upgrades

Cyclocross categories are self-selected except for mandatory upgrades and
upgrades to Category 1 & 2 (Women, men and masters).

Riders may not move down in category without the approval of the Executive
Director.

Unlike road, cyclocross points for combined fields will count for upgrades
from the both categories- For example, 2/3 fields will count for upgrades
from 3→2 and 2→1. 3/4 fields will count for upgrades from 4→3 and 3→2.

For those who wish to upgrade to 1 (Women, men and masters), send an e-mail
to upgrades@obra.org with your race resume.
Racers wishing to upgrade must have at least 20 points to qualify as an 2 or
1.
