I don't think Mass is going to be USAC we will see?
I am wondering why Kite thinks it wouldn't be a good spot for a first DH race?
I think it is one of the best spots for a first race, def. one of the easiest technical
races on the eastcoast in my eyes.
Our pleasure,
Look for registration info sooner than later.

Finish Line social Friday night after practice.
No campfires please.
As I was afraid of it appears this "National Championship" is not on the UCI Calendar. www.uci.ch
I am speechless and very disappointed. I have always been a big supporter of USAC but guys if this is true, someone failed miserably. Yes the xc and other disiplines are inscribed and held within the UCI "window" for National Championship events. But not gravity.
I can only hope there is something in the works to correct this
Know what sucks? There are ProTour road teams that have been getting last minute licenses and shuffling stuff around over the last few weeks.
Way, way, way behind that deadline.
It's a damn sad state of affairs...
IIRC don't some of the Oceania nations have special dispensation for national championship dates?

Well, USAC announced the gravity location WAY after the xc location.
It could just be a paperwork issue.
Or maybe the deadline does not mean anything, like "mandatory racer meetings" at local races.

not gonna read through this entire post, so i'll just say don't read too much into the "not listed on the UCI website" deal. UCI is off the back with some updates there as well. Last time i checked (although it wasn't recent), they still had Northstar listed as a UCI cat 2 event for 4x. It will not be. only DH will be a UCI event.
as far as being "outside" the 2nd week of July date,... this is kinda one of the benefits of being on a lower tier. we can adjust dates accordingly if needed. it's not mandatory to be set on a certain date for DH (which is good since most of the support trucks will be at the XC champs.) not saying that this date is ideal... far from. i know they were looking for options towards the middle of the season, but i guess it didn't work out
i don't deal anything with national champs other than give some thought from time to time,... so i can't really answer many questions here.
