New Champions Crowned in NYSBRA’s “Race of Truth!”
111 individual riders came from all over NYS to the 2023 NYSBRA State TT Champs, held at the Cooperstown Airport. Central New York Cyclists (CNYC) hosted the event for the first time on a new course on Route 166. The riders competed in multiple categories and distances; though exhausted from their hard day out on the bike the racers feedback was very positive. Thanks to NYSBRA for their support. And our volunteers and USA Cycling Officials made the day a huge success.
We were flying!

New NYSBRA Criterium Champions!
The 2023 NYSBRA Criterium State Championships were hosted by the Main St Bikes Garrett’s Brewing Race Team in Trumansburg, 12Aug. With an ever-changing forecast and hit or miss showers all around, we stayed dry for all but the Elite Men’s race. We had was a fantastic day of DownTown Crit racing on a 8 turn, 1 mile residential course that is exciting to watch and a thrill to race. There are a lot of moving pieces to pulling of a downtown crit and with much help from many it all comes together. A few years into this event the crew is really getting it efficiently dialed in, so let’s grow this race! Thank you all: racers, fans, officials, timers, sponsors, villagers & Volunteers! See you next year- John Compton, Race Director
Capital Region Road Race Crowns State Champions!
With 330 registered participants, the 22nd annual NY Capital Region Race was a great success. Racers were treated to some new pavement on course, and unlike all the days in between, dry weather! New this year was the addition of junior 9-14 races on a 13 mile course, supporting Capital Bicycle Racing Club’s commitment to enhancing opportunities for junior riders. CBRC is honored to have hosted the 2023 NYSBRA Road Race Championship and as race promoter, I am grateful to ‘the village’ that helped make it happen.
