The 2010 Air Force Cycling Classic Crystal Ride

Sunday, June 13th   0730 hrs
Crystal City
2100 Crystal Drive
Arlington, VA

Brief Description:
The Crystal Ride (the “Peoples Ride”) is a non-competitive ride that will begin in Crystal City and pass by the Air Force Memorial.  It offers a 12.5 kilometer course open to both serious and casual amateur cyclists, but closed to traffic!  Bronze, Silver and Gold Medals will be awarded for those who can complete 2, 4 or 8 laps within the 3.5 hour window that the course will be open for the ride (closes at 11am). 8 laps will equate to a metric century (100 km).  You do not have to start at 7:30am, as you can check in up to 9am - it just all depends on how many laps you want to complete by 11am. There are two ways to participate, either through Standard Registration or as a fundraiser by being part of Team Intrepid. 

 

On-line registration is now closed, however you can still register in person during packet pick-up at the Crystal City Marriott at Reagan National Airport (1999 Jeff Davis Hwy, Arlington, VA), on Friday between 2-6pm, and on Saturday, between noon and 5pm.  You can also register on ride morning at the s/f line (check back, in case registration is full)
