Road: OBRA Cat 4 women is USAC Cat 3.
CCX: OBRA Women B would be the same as USAC Cat 2.
I don't know the details of the Women's B "ranking"...where it lies in the landscape of categories.
It seems like it's a Beginner/novice field. The notes on the "rules" indicate it is NOT a championship category, and may be raced with a one-day license. My guess is that if you buy an annual USAC license to race in one of the other women's categories (1 thorugh 3), then you will NOT be allowed to race the B's.
If anyone else, knows, please chime in.
Thanks,
Fish

Can (OBRA) Cat 4 women register for the nationals Women's B race then? Sorry. I've gotten a little lost in the implications.
