About Us
Information about the North Wales Cyclocross Group.
The NWCX League was established in 2007 by former international professional bike racer and British cyclocross legend Barry Davies.
In 2016, the administration of the Group and League was transferred to the NWCX Group Committee. NWCX Group administers a series of CX races across North Wales from September until late January. In practice, races are organised by a mix of clubs and individuals.
NWCX welcomes all competitors, whether experienced or newcomers. Competitors as young as 6 and as old as 75 routinely compete. NWCXG prefers the use of classic cyclocross bikes, though many competitors use mountain bikes. Young riders are particularly welcome. Adult riders new to cyclocross or bike racing can enter the beginners race. This is run earlier in the day and has proven to be popular.
NWCX enforces a Single Frameset Rule. This restricts competitors to one bike, reducing equipment requirements and helping to create a level playing field. For similar reasons, pressure washers are outlawed.
