SSCXWC or Single-speed Cyclocross World Championship is a Cyclo-cross championship race event.

It founded in 2007 in Portland, Oregon, U.S. by Dani Dance with 140 racers. Racers must qualify for the "main event" race through a series of on-bike challenges the day before. Those that don't qualify, race in the "everybody's a winner" exhibition race. Riders have been able to qualify based on feats of strength and courses have been littered with every obstacle imaginable. The SSCXWC has increasingly become known for its party-like atmosphere. Per tradition, if you win you must get a tattoo, resulting in controversy when doing so was refused.

UCI regulations do not apply here, instead there is a nonexistent rulebook. “Single Speed Cyclocross World Champs is the not-so-underground, fringe, party event that calls itself a World Champs and, in many ways, it is. But instead of (doing drugs) (marginal gains) that make you faster, you do things that make you slower like keg stands, whiskey shots, and hot dog hand-ups.”

It has mostly held in the United States of American, but has also been held in Europe, in Verona, Italy (2017) and Tournai, Belgium (2018)
