The 2nd Annual Dana Point Grand Prix of Cycling is proud to announce the selection for this years event as host of the 2008 USAC/SCNCA California Master State Criterium Championships on Sunday June 1, 2008.
For 2008, a newly revised and upgraded .8 mile L-shape 6 turn course will be utilized to facilitate true Championship style criterium racing action allowing participants to compete at their top-level best.
The course begins in Heritage Park overlooking the beautiful Dana Point Harbor and follows through the adjoining residential community on safe, smooth streets. Athletes then proceed onto a straight, long and fast downtown stretch on Del Prado Ave (Hwy 101) with the final turn onto Old Golden Lantern, finishing towards Heritage Park and a wide open 200 meter final sprint.
We challenge competitors to test their racing skills on a true Grand Prix style of course incorporating fast downtown action and beautiful residential, park community settings.
Hope to see you here!
