While the UCI-ranked races at the UCI Cyclocross World Cup, Dublin, will be run on Sunday of race weekend, amateur riders can also compete in their own events the day before.

And those races, which are effectively support events to the main card 24 hours later, are being run on the same course the pros and international U23s and juniors will compete on.

It means the weekend of November 30th and December 1st is the only chance in Irish cycling that riders will be able to pin numbers on and compete on the same course as the professionals.

On Saturday, November 30th, there are support races for riders of all categories; from U6s to Masters 60 riders, and everyone in between. And that, obviously, includes a race for senior men and women.

The action will get underway from 9am, when registration opens for the youth events, and at 10am the racing actually gets underway. We've include the full schedule below.

Riders cannot be on the main track before 11:30am and must be off the track by 1:45pm. Some of the races - U6, U8, U10 and U12 - will be held on a support track, though all of the other races on the day will unfold on the main course at the Sport Ireland Campus in Snugborough Road, Blanchardstown, Dublin 15.
