If you’re in the area, and want to check out some pro racing, make some time to come down to Crystal City for the U.S. Air Force Cycling Classic (previously the Crystal City Classic). Pro race starts at 11:45a, and finishes somewhere around 2:30p. The course will take the riders around the U.S. Air Force Memorial and through Crystal City on a 12.5km circuit. Free. Details (including maps of course) here.
(If you were out there for the charity ride benefiting the Raisin Hope Foundation, and are looking for pictures, please check back soon. Thanks.)
Update: So, if you go to the race website, you’ll see a list of “media sponsors” on the right hand side. Washington Times, News Channel 8, Cyclingnews.com, etc. But if you search “U.S. Air Force Cycling Classic”, who comes up well before any of them? I do. Thank you. Thank you very much.
Update II: For pictures of the finishing sprint of the race, check here.
