One of the longest running stage races in Indiana has changed somewhat for 2009. Due to the Indiana State Fair running longer this year, the date and venues had to be altered slightly. The first leg of the stage race will be the Eagle Creek Park Fast Crit. Known for its lightening speeds, the Fast Crit makes an ideal venue choice. The 0.6 mile oval course provides no place to hide or rest – a track-lovers dream. Seldom do riders get a chance to consistently hit speeds in the upper 20’s, without touching the brakes, in a crit – you will at the Eagle Creek Park Fast Crit.

A new 9 KM TT course will greet the riders (except for the hand-cyclists) in the afternoon. The TT has been moved from Fall Creek Parkway to the Eagle Creek area so that participants don’t have to travel to the other side of the city. The TT course will be point A to point B and will be an easy ride/drive from the Fast Crit.

The last leg of the stage race will be comprised of the always challenging Fort Ben Road Race. This course always keeps the riders on their toes with its twists and turns through the woods and the screaming descent to the finish line. This year will be no different. We are excited about the changes and look forward to some great racing.
