24th Annual Redlands Bicycle Classic

April 4, 2008

The 24th annual Redlands Bicycle Classic got underway on Wednesday, April 2, but the main events will be occurring now through Sunday, April 6.

Today, the Possibilities Handcycle Race begins at City Hall. The main race for today is the Beaumont Circuit Race which begins at Sixth Street east of Beaumont Avenue in Beaumont. If you are planning to visit in Beaumont, you need to be wary of street closures.

Saturday will begin with registration for the Rotary Ride which is your opportunity to have a scenic ride through Redlands, a simple tour or the Savage Rick Beswick ride.

At 7a.m. you can also come to the parking structure on Citrus Avenue for the Kiwanis Club's annual pancake breakfast. At 9 a.m. the public races will commence and at 1 p.m. the Mayor's challenge will be a fun event to watch. At 2 p.m. the criterium for men and women will continue for until approximately 5 p.m.

Sunday will have criteriums in the morning and the Sunset Road race in the afternoon.

Obviously during the races there will be road closures, so I recommend visiting the race web site, http://www.redlandsclassic.com/.
