Jefferson Cup Road Race

The Jefferson Cup Road Race returns to Albemarle County on Saturday, April 19, 2025, as part of a dual race weekend in partnership with the UVA Cycling Club’s Cavalier Criterium on April 20. Jeff Cup is organized in partnership with the Charlottesville Racing Club and Blue Ridge Cyclery.

The Mid-Atlantic’s most iconic USA Cycling road race—Jefferson Cup has been a proving ground for the nation’s top cyclists and a launching point for rising stars since 1991. Come join in this rich tradition!

Location: Walton Middle School - 4217 Red Hill Road, Charlottesville, VA 22903 (note the change from the previous two years).

Registration: Registration at the school will begin at 6:45 am and closes 30 minutes before the beginning of each wave.  For the 8:00-8:10 races, this will be 7:30 AM.  For the 10:30-10:40 races, this is 10:00 and for the 1:30-1:40 races this is 1:00.  

Staging: A caravan with police motorcycle escorts will leave from the school and head to the start area 20 minutes before the beginning of each wave.   If you choose to ride to the start without the escort, you do so at your own risk.

**Route: **The start/finish line is on Carter’s Mountain Rd. about a mile and a half north of the intersection with Secretarys Rd. next to a small public easement. Racers & team cars may not park anywhere along Carter’s Mountain Rd.   Doing so will result in a disqualification. The race course lap can be seen here: https://www.strava.com/routes/23489557.
