Race Tire:
If you are looking for the perfect tire for the Niwot Criterium make sure to checkout the
Continental GS 4000s. Niwot Cycles will have them in stock in anticipation of this highly technical race course.
Course:
The Historic Niwot Crit is a front range classic. A flat, fast, and technical 1 mile course through downtown Niwot Colorado.
With 2 of the 7 corners sharper than 90 degrees, racers and spectators can expect an exciting day of racing full of breakaways,
shattered fields, and tactical moves. Come out and watch along 2nd ave. at one of the many resturants which line the finishing straight.
