On July 30th, bicycle racing is coming to the West End of Lakewood!
A criterium is a popular form of high-speed bike racing that showcases the speed, agility and power of the cyclists. The criterium course is closed to traffic, typically less than a mile in distance and punctuated by sharp corners and speeds of over 30 miles per hour. This is the most exciting of all cycling events!
The Lakewood Criterium offers events for seasoned racers as well as the community at large. Races will be held for men, women, fixie/single-speed riders, and kids! Test your legs and your bike handling skills - and most of all enjoy a summer Saturday afternoon with family and friends!
