Race Report: Victorville Criterium – By Wesley Eslick, SoCalCycling.com Team

On Sunday June 19, 2016, Majestic Cycling hosted the Victorville Criterium around the main streets of City Hall.

The City of Victorville and Majestic Cycling hosted the Victorville Road Race on Saturday, June 18th. The Pro 1/2 field was relatively small with only 20-25 riders.

A Win at the Elite Road Race Championships – By Erick Sobey, SoCalCycling.com Team

San Luis Rey Road Race poses a challenge for many racers not only to compete, but to finish. San Luis Rey is a 104 mile road course in which the field races 7 laps out and back through the scenic countryside of North County San Diego, between Vista San Marcos and Temecula. The temperature was on the high side of moderate but the usual dryness of the air keeps you thirsty all day. Four hours of racing out there will […]
