There was a tremendous amount of anticipation around the national series kicking off in Louisville in 2007. The local Louisville 'cross scene is booming, and the city welcomed athletes from across the U.S. and Europe for the first UCI sanctioned 'cross race to ever take place in Kentucky.
The U.S. Gran Prix of Cyclocross will return to Louisville October 25-26. After a very successful event in 2007, the event is expected to be upgraded by the Union Cycliste Internationale (UCI) to a C1 status.
