WHEN & WHERE
Saturday, August 5, 2023 | 9:00 AM — Road Race @ Horse Creek (Cochrane)
The road race takes place on Horse Creek Rd just outside the Town of Cochrane. With its rolling hills and majestic scenery, all racers are challenged by the 22 kilometer course.
Sunday, August 6, 2023 | 9:30 AM to 12:40 PM — Hill Climb — @ Mackay Road NW, Calgary
The Hill Climb is an exciting dash to the top of Mackay Road. This short and intense climb takes brute power and strength to successfully conquer the 1 kilometer long steep 141 foot ascent. Lined with cheering spectators and a gorgeous view of Calgary in the background. The finishing setup was too much fun not to replicate again, so the top 5 in each category will race a second time to get their placement!
Monday, August 7, 2023 | 8:00 AM to 3:00 PM — Criterium @ Bowness, Calgary
A criterium is a fast race on a short circuit with the city streets closed to traffic. Racers reach speeds of up to 70 km/hr as they race on the circuit that loops from Bowness Rd, past Bow Cycle and back around the winding streets of the community of Bowness.
