Update
Cycling will be held on only one day, Saturday 9/21. Due to cycling insurance being dropped from our insurance company and picking up another policy for 3 times the original amount plus other costs, adding 9/22 will not not feasible. Cyclists will be required to choose a maximum of 2 events for safety reasons.
For National qualifying:
1. Cyclists qualifying in either the 5K or 10K time trials may enter both time trial events.
2. Cyclists qualifying in either the 20K or 40K road races may enter both road race events.
Our Race Day Events staff will be on hand again to host this event for 2024!
Events: 5K (Time Trial), 20K Road Race (mass start), 40K Road Race (mass start).
