Just a Few More Days!

Well, just a few more days until the first ever Pensacola Cycling Classic stage race! We have put a lot of effort into assuring our community has a great event...and it looks like the weather will cooperate as well. Saturday morning will find the riders in Milton at Adventures Unlimited for the Road Race. This is a brutal 40 kilometer course that will challenge even the strongest riders. Then in the afternoon, out to the beach for the 5 kilometer Time Trial at Fort Pickens. This course is flat and fast and sure to be a welcome sight after the morning's road race.

The Critirium will be in downtown Pensacola early Sunday morning. This timed mass start, multiple lap race is a real crowd pleaser. The high speed course dares the riders to take it's 6 turns at full speed! Watch out, there may to be some carnage on this loop.
