Wednesday, March 02, 2005

On Saturday, March 19 the Columbia University Cycling Team and Century Road Club Association are holding the Grant’s Tomb Criterium in Manhattan. There are fields for USAC pro-1-2, women 1-2-3-4, cat 3-4 as well as collegiate women A and B, and men A, B, C and D.

There is reserved parking for racers just north of the course. See flier for details.

This is a really great course — here are some photos from recent years:

Registration is also open for CRCA’s Bear Mountain Spring Classic in Harriman State Park in New York on Saturday, April 30. The event has fields for USAC pro-1-2, cat 3, cat 4, women 1-2-3, women 4, masters 40+ (cat 1-4 only); the first three juniors in the cat 3 and cat 4 races will be recognized with medals. The cat 4 race is full with a waiting list available.

The Harriman course is one of the country’s most scenic road courses and tremendously satisfying to race on.

Visit http://www.crca.net/races05/harriman.htm to register online and for more information.

Please note that this date is earlier than usual, on the last Saturday in April. The next day is the Hollenbeck’s Spring Classic in Virgil, New York, and the following weekend is Jiminy Peak.

I hope to see you at the races.
