The 2010 North American Cyclocross Trophy Series will stay within the borders of the United States this year, but will span the continent with four weekends of racing.
This will be the third season for the series, which claims to be the richest cyclocross series in North America when series winnings are combined with daily prizes. This year the series will award equal prize lists for men and women.
“This has been a goal of the NACT series since year one so this is very exciting to announce,” said Myles Romanow, race director of the Whitmore’s Landscape Super Cross Cup and NACT founder.
Also new for 2010 is rider travel support for the top three riders each race weekend.
Bob’s Red Mill is sponsoring the Whole Grain Gauntlet course feature at each race and will give away food at the events.
Other NACT sponsors include Castelli–U.S. and BikeReg.com providing series online registration.
In 2009 the overall NACT series honors went to U.S. National Champion Tim Johnson of the Cannondale/Cyclocrossworld.com team and Canadian Natasha Elliott of the Garneau Club Chaussure Ogilvy team
