NEVADA CITY, California (May 4, 2020) — 2020 marks the 60th anniversary of the Nevada City Cycling Classic, the second oldest continuously running bicycle race in the country.
The Nevada City Classic will be held on the weekend of September 5-6, 2020. We look forward to the first ever September Classic, rescheduled due to COVID-19. In spite of recent sequestrations and events, the Nevada City Classic team is starting the process of planning this year’s event to take place on Saturday and Sunday, September 5-6.
We recognize that events that lay ahead remain unknown. We are committed to complying with all mandates for health and safety. Because it takes months to plan the event, the team is planning the annual schedule, just in case.
The course is back to the original design by event founder Charlie Allert in 1961, this was done for the race in 2018 and continues to be a popular route.
Register for this historic Pro/Am bicycle race, and watch for other cycling events this weekend.
