The Scottish Cyclocross Association is delighted to announce that after a two year hiatus, the SCX Series will return for 2022-23!

The SCX Series will kick off on 18 September at Muir of Ord, and will include some exciting new courses, offering a mixture of terrains and surely something to challenge every rider. 

The season will also see a welcome return to Camperdown Park in Dundee for the Scottish National Championships (#SCNatChamps). 

SCX 2022-23 confirmed dates so far are as follows:

  • Muir of Ord - 18 September

  • Lochore Meadows - 2 October

  • Brechin - 16 October

  • Ballantrae Beach - 29 & 30 October (has since been removed)

  • Champs, Dundee - 13 November 

  • Kinneil X - 27 November

*entry dates and spectator information will be published in due course.

Howard Perkins, SCX Committee Chair said:

“At our AGM earlier this year we said our number one priority was to reinstate the SCX Series so I’m immensely grateful to the organisers who have committed to putting on the series races announced today. We are hopeful of adding even more races to give a varied season long competition across Scotland.”

Scottish Cycling Chief Executive Nick Rennie agreed stating:

“It’s fantastic to welcome the Scottish CX Series back for 2022-23. I congratulate SCX Committee for all their hard work in ensuring that we will see a full Cyclocross series post-pandemic. I would like to thank our fantastic team of event organisers across the country, who do an excellent job in making sure that our range of Cyclocross events are improving year-on-year, while still remaining fun and accessible to all. This year is no different with some new courses in Brechin and Ballantrae Beach as well as some old favourites such as Kinneil X in Bo’ness.

On the return of the National Championship to Dundee, Rennie added:

“It will also be great to return to Camperdown Park, as I know that last year’s Scottish National Cyclocross Championships were a fantastic success, so hopefully we will see another excellent #SCNatChamps event in Dundee this November.”

Alongside planning a new SCX Series, the SCX Association has been working with organisers to identify and support other grass-roots cyclocross races across Scotland - you can find these here. We can support races in a number of ways, from timing contracts to tracking down race equipment, so if you are thinking of putting on a race this season, we want to hear from you - please get in touch with us hello@scottishcx.org.uk
