168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Really Rad Festival of Cyclocross has been a fixture🌠 of cyclo-cross in New England for more than 42 years. The 2022 event will be held at the Cape Cod Fairgrounds on November 5-6, and o🐈rganisers will an extra day, Friday, November 4, to dedicate competitions for the Continental Championships.
“We are thrilled to announce the Really Rad Festival of Cyclocross as the host organization for our 2022 Pan American Cyclo-cross Championships,” said Josh Peacock, the int🐲erim President of Cross Commission for the Pan American Cycling Confederation (COPACI), in a statement Friday. 🦂He also serves as the director of marketing and events for Cycling Canada.
“The organization behind the event, in close collaboration with USA Cycling, were quick to respo💜nd and adapt following the cancelation announcement of the originally planned event in Costa Rica. Given the event’s reputation and calendar placement, the collaboration with Really Rad was an easy choice.”
The original ch🔯ampionships were scheduled to take place in San Jose, Costa Rica on November 5-6. On October 4, organisers announced the cancellation because of the loss of its host venue, Parque Viva, and subsequent difficulties in finding a re🧸placement, as the reason to call off the multi-national event.
Only a week ago Peacock said he was made aware of the cancellation with t༒he UCI, saying, "We are currently examining multiple avenues t🌳o try and find a replacement event/venue, but cannot comment specifically on which venues are in play until we’ve done our due diligence with the local organizing committees in question.”
Timing was the issue. COPACI looked at existing events which could add the championships to their schedule as the best-case scenario. Cycl💜ing Canada have only one UCI-sanctioned event, the C2 Bear Crossing Grand Prix in Langford, British Columbia on November 27, that race is being held in conjunction wi🌟th their national championships.

USA Cycling was contacted about several races on the Pro CX calendar prior to their national championships Deඣcember 6-11 in Hartford, Connecticut and a decision took only a matter of days.
“We are honored to share the exci൩ting news that the United States will be hosting the Cyclocross Pan- American Continental Championships this year as part of the Really Rad Festival of Cyclocross,” said Brendan Quirk, president & CEO of USA Cycling. “USA Cycling was proud to play an integral part in securing this event and we are excited to add another high-level cyclocross event to the U.S.”

The last Pan Am championships took place in Garland, Texas after being cancelled in 2020 due to the pandemic.
“Cyclocross in New England has a long and storied history,” said Adam Sykes, race director of the Really Rad Festival of Cyclocross. “In additꦫion to being the final race of the USCX, we are excited to add ꦡthe 2022 Pan American Cyclo-cross Championships to our block of races.”
