For those Juniors that do not have annual licenses yet, and plan to race next year
the rules have changed
You must ride junior gearing in all races, not just junior ones.
So yes, if you are a 17-year-old racing a pro 1/2 race, you will be required to race junior gears, and report to roll-out immediately after your race.
Some officials are talking about doing what is done at nationals - the bike is rolled out before the race and then corraled, meaning once its rolled out, you may have it only between the roll-out area and the start line.
The changes have been posted on the USA cycling web site.
Off to go change a couple of cassettes.
