Do USCF race count the same as CBR races?
Yes, they do. CBR has a reciprocity agreement with the United States Cycling Federation (USCF), which also includes the USCF’s local Southern California association, the Southern California-Nevada Cycling Association (SCNCA). The upgrade requirements are the same, so as long as each race (whether CBR or USCF) fulfills their requirements, those races can be used towards a race category upgrade.
