Hi Everyone,

The Kent Bike Festival is almost here. On Sunday, May 30th, the City of Kent will be hosting the inaugural Kent Bike Festival. The criterium begins at 1:00pm with a master?s race, on a very challenging figure-eight course. The event continues throughout the day with various categories and concludes with a twilight 1-2-Pro race, starting at 7:35pm

The Kent Bike Festival is truly a one-of-a kind event. In addition to the race, festivities for the event include:

 Youth Bike Rodeo

 Free Helmet Fittings

 $5 helmet sales

 Redline Freestyle BMX Demo

 Free Kids Races (10& under) with Free Ribbons

The race itself is a highly technical figure-eight style criterium. This race course is extremely flat and favors high speeds combined with great bike handling skills as riders navigate through eight different turns per lap. Pavement is also in excellent condition.

Top riders in the Cat 1/2/Pro and Cat 1-3 women, will be competing for their respective Kent Bike Festival Trophy. Winners will also receive a commemorative KBF T-shirt.

For Junior riders, the Kent Bike Festival is a LAJORS Event and contributes points to the Seattle Junior Criterium Series. Top three riders in each category will receive LAJORS medals, and the winner of each category will receive a Kent Bike Festival trophy.

The race schedule is as follows:

1:05 Masters 35 min 3 Prizes

1:50 Junior D 15 min 3 Medals*

2:15 Junior C 15 min 3 Medals*
