I just reviewed the Cross Crusade organizer's web site and realize that I
missed this previously. It is apparent that this is a bit of left over
information from the '03 National Championships-which at that time would
have made the statement correct.
As Shawn indicates, the UCI regulations are clear and all junior that enter
these UCI events (as well as the USCF) are entered according to their age
for the 2005 season.

It isn't just for nationals. They should all be racing their 2005 ages
for all cyclocross races now.
I hope the Portland UCI cross person is not telling people that.

Thanks for the info. You might make this explicit. A lot of kids
where I live (Seattle area) are racing thinking they they will ride in
their 2004 age groups at Nationals. On their web site the promoters
of the Portland UCI Race on Saturday (10/9) are telling even the 17-18
year-old riders to race their 2004 ages. Please let people know so
the kids know what to expect. Thanks again. Michael

The easiest way to look at it is this, all of your sons ride in the
age group that would show on their 2005 licenses. They are essentially
one year older in racing age for cyclocross.

Hi Shawn...My son is a junior racer. I'm not understanding the rule
for junior cylocross age groups. Last year if your racing age was 16
you raced in the 17-18 category at Nationals (or your 2004 UCI age for
purposes of qualifying for Worlds). All of the other age groups raced
in the 2003 road racing age groups. So effectively, there was age
groups at Nationals of 10-12, 13-14, 15, and 16+.
It seems to have changed this year. Specifically my question is, if
my son's 2004 racing age is 16, what age group does he race at the
2004 Nationals. What if he is 14 or 12? Thanks.
