The Campus Cycling Collective, Inc. is proud to present The Rust Belt Ruckus! — A Buffalo Cyclocross SeriesNew for 2025 your Buffalo cyclocross promotors have joined forces with the CCC to bring you a better cyclocross season. The Rust Belt Ruckus will consist of a 5 race series in a condensed season format going from October 5th to November 16th. (no more August 80 degree cross race followed by weeks of no local races) All races will be UNSANCTIONED, meaning you do not need a USAC license to participate, or worry about one day licenses. This removes barriers of entry for Canadians, former license holders who miss riding in the tape, and new racers. We will have consistent race schedules and a condensed “Siuta” format so the entire day fits into 3 ½ hours of racing. This will put more people on the course at once making it more fun, not a time trial. This also gets you back to your family or allows plenty of hang out time or to help set/clean up the course. Each race will have its own podiums and awards, but at the final race on November 16th at One O Four Farm's Gobble OOF CX, we will present series awards for those who participated and performed the most & best & worst, best spectator, most hand-ups taken/given, Most $ accumulated via hand ups, (along with some other CX Daddy picked superlatives…).
