The 6th Annual Gene Galindo Memorial Cyclocross race will be held Sunday November 29th in Verdugo Park in Glendale. This SoCal institution is being raced on its traditional Thanksgiving weekend as race #13 of the Southern California Prestige Series of Cyclocross. Cyclocross is an exciting form of bicycle racing that takes place on a short, closed course composed of dirt, grass, and pavement.
Always popular with the holiday family crowd, spectating is free and the racing will be furious! Categories include under 10 to 60 years +. Racing begins at 8:30 AM and concludes at 3:30 PM. There is a free kids race at 1:00 PM open to all kids under 10 on any type of bicycle!
Host club the Pasadena Athletic Association is proud of the race and will be out in force setting up the course as early as 6:00 AM. Sponsor ReMax Premier Properties of San Marino will be serving up fresh waffles and coffee to anyone there at the break of dawn. And the race organization will be providing a hot dog lunch in the middle of the day. We are excited to welcome YUCYCLES (www.yucycle.com)
