SORRY!!! Cancelled for 2009. (updated 5/7/09)

Thanks to all who participated in the first annual Golden City Criterium (2007).  It was a huge success.  

Yreka is an old gold mining and lumber town near the California/Oregon border.   We are located on Interstate 5, 50 minutes south of Medford, OR and 90 minutes north of Redding, CA.

The race directors are cyclists with many years of road racing experience.  Our goal is for this race to grow into a major event for west coast cycling.

This race is made possible by the generosity of our local sponsors.  Please visit the sponsors page.  Special thanks to the City of Yreka for allowing this event, and the Yreka Chamber of Commerce for all their efforts.

 

  • COURSE:  A challenging 0.7 mile "L" shaped loop in the heart of the old town of Yreka.  Pavement is good with 25 feet of elevation gain per lap and a wide long finishing street.

 

  • PRIZES/PRIMES:  Prize values consist of cash and merchandise donated by our generous sponsors. CASH PRIMES THAT PAY 3 DEEP FOR ALL CATS!!!.

 

  • RULES:  All OBRA (Oregon Bike Racing Association) rules will be in effect.  Free lap rule will apply.  No Neutral wheel support.  Lapped riders will be pulled.  Please be courteous and mindful of the surrounding neighborhoods.  Please do not warm up on the course.
