Race Notification for Eugene Celebration Cycling Classic - September 21-22nd
Eugene, Oregon
This is a pre-race flyer so racers can get it on their training/travel/family/life schedules.
The Willamette Valley's largest bicycle race is back and better than ever. With the 20th anniversary
of the festival, the organizing group Downtown Events Management and Jim Anderson have worked to
bring back a downtown criterium to the event. This year it's happening! The course is close to the
festival site and should attract many spectators. Along with a new criterium there is a new road
race and time trial course.
We are very excited to present these new courses and believe it will be the best Cycling Classic to
date.
