This Sunday, the Capital Criterium returns to Pennsylvania Avenue. Â In addition to pro racing at 1pm, there are local races in the AM, a kids race (free helmets for every entrant) after, and a local celebrity ride in support of bringing a stage of the Giro d’Italia to DC in 2012. Â I’ll be there. Â You? Photos from the inaugural edition are here. Â More info after the jump.
