NOTE: This year there will be two cyclo-cross races, the A' race and the B' race.
The A' race will have the usual categories, Senior men, Junior men, Women, Veteran men, Supervet men.

The B' race is for males only and is aimed for novices, beginners and riders who consistently finish in the bottom third of the main CX races.
There will be minor prizes for the top 3 men.
There will only be a B' race if there are at least 20 entries in the A' race and 15 in the B' race.
To ensure that the B' race remains for this group, any rider who wins a B' race cannot enter another B' race for the rest of the series!
