The Ulster cyclo-cross season is starting to shape up. In September we have two independent events – GP Brian Kinnings and the Phoenix CC event. The Ulster Cyclo-cross series kicks off on the first weekend in October with 7 clubs ready to run races. Once the clubs have been confirmed we will post up the order on this website.

The calendar of cyclo-cross events for Ulster for the upcoming season is now being compiled

If your club is interested in running a CX event this year could you

a) confirm this with your club committee

b) confirm whether you want your event to be part of the Ulster Cyclo-cross series, or you want to run the Ulster championships, or run as an independent event.

c) get back to me by Sunday 13 June 2021 (close of play).

If your club is not interested, please let me know before that date as well.
NOTE 1: The Ulster Cyclo-cross series would start on 3 October 2021.  
NOTE 2: There would be no event on 17 October 2021 due to the UCI C2 race (Verge Cross Clonmel Co. Tipperary).
NOTE 3: The Ulster Championships are scheduled to run on 5 December 2021.

Apollo Committee decided last night to cancel this weekend’s cyclocross race in Lurgan Park. The Committee deeply regrets having to make this decision and so close to the event, but due to circumstances regarding Covid-19, it was felt it wasn’t the best decision to continue with the race. Thank you so much to the people who offered their time to help out at the race, and we apologise to all the racers. We hope you understand. Stay safe Apollo committee.

All entries will be refunded

Round 2 takes place on Sunday 11 October 2020 at Lurgan Park hosted by Apollo CT. Registration for Round 2 now open – here.
