Bloomington Criterium

By Allan Edmonds

This year the Bloomington Criterium, sponsored by local racing team Tortuga, ended up on the same day as the BBC RAIN Ride. It was a fun event for those of us not participating in RAIN (and even for a few who did RAIN!).

Here’s the route for the race (about 0.55 miles):

And here’s a snapshot of the Cat 3 (mid level, amateurs) racers making the corner from Grant onto Kirkwood by the Library. (Click on it for a larger version.)

For those not familiar with criterium racing, there’s a general description at Wikipedia.
