New Berlin, NY – After nearly 40 years of racing, the famed Unadilla Valley Sports Center is about to enter a new era, as the Suzuki Grand National Cross Country Series’ presents the first-ever Unadilla GNCC on September 24 and 25. This will mark the first off-road race of its kind ever held at the track, and the combination of two motocross tracks and New York’s toughest woods should make for an unforgettable weekend of action.

“We’re really excited about this. In fact, we can’t wait,” says Greg Robinson of Unadilla Valley Sports Center. “We’re going to use both motocross tracks, the original pro track and the U2 amateur track designed by Doug Henry, as well as all the hard woods, swamps and trails.”
Over 1500 riders are expected to take to the famous track over the weekend, including motorcycle, ATV and youth racers.

It will take a truly versatile rider to handle such a variety of terrain – fast, wide-open motocross tracks and tight, technical woods. Spectators and riders will get a first-hand look at all of it. Riders in all classes will get a shot at the track, and fans are free to explore the expansive facility all weekend long – including the numerous jumps, mud holes and hill climbs.
