Snake Alley Criterium

The **Snake Alley Criterium **is held on a twenty-two block course, 1 mile per lap with differences in elevation of 132 feet. The course is entirely on city streets, in a downtown commercial area and a historic residential district. A one block long climb is on the historic brick street named Snake Alley, dubbed “the crookedest street in the world.” The 276 foot long Snake Alley has 5 switchbacks in a sixty foot climb. The average grade is 12.5 percent in that one block. Bring a suitable gear cluster for that kind of climbing. This is one of the most physically challenging races in the Midwest.

Registration is from 7:30 am at Steamboat Senior Center - 510 Jefferson Street - Downtown Burlington. You must pick up your numbers before the close of registration for your event. Registration closes 1 hour before the scheduled start time for each event. If you fail to pick up your number on time, you may forfeit your entry fee and your number will be offered to riders on any waiting lists. You will not be allowed to race if you do not have your racing license. You are required to show your license to registration officials before you are given your number.

**                                         Riders will be staged in order of registration.                                                 **
