Upgrade points for USCF road licenses are awarded for road races and
criteriums ("mass-start" events) only--time trials do not qualify.Starting in 2006, USAC cyclocross upgrade points are awarded for results in cyclocross events only.
KCA upgrade guidelines permit riders to receive 50% of the normal upgrade points for participation in races that fail to meet minimum field size requirement but have at least 50% of field size requirement.
Please read the USCF Categorization Guidelines.
An upgrade request consists of the following:
- Rider Name
- USCF license number
- Current USCF category and requested category
- 12-month racing resume with race names, race dates, category raced, field size, placing and rider's mailing address.
