Tour of Page County

Registration for the Tour of Page County opens at noon on Wednesday, July 7th, at www.pre-reg.com. Sponsored by Page Valley Cycling and co-promoted by Whole Wheel Velo Club, the Tour of Page County consists of the Page Valley Road Race (Saturday, Aug. 7) and the inaguaral Luray Criterium (Sunday, Aug. 8).

The Page Valley Road Race is the Senior Championship Road Race both both VACA and MABRA. The Tour of Page County is also part of the GamJams Cat 3 Cup, p/b Mountain Khakis, the Proteus/MABRA Cat 3 and Cat 4 Women’s Race Series, and the MABRA and VACA BAR.

The Tour of Page County is your opportunity for an entire weekend of challenging races and BAR points for the low price of just $45! And, with so much to do in Page County, this event is a perfect opportunity to have a close-to-home vacation for your family and friends!

Participants may register for each event separately, but for selected fields, we will also be scoring an omnium by calculating the results of the two events on a simple point system for each field based on final results, the KOM competition for the road race, and premes for the crit.

The Tour of Page County has an emphasis on local, with a “Taste of Luray” event sponsored by the Luray Downtown Initiative on the day of the crit. Most of our prizes will reflect our local theme, including wines from local Virginia wineries. Also, the winner of the omnium in each field will receive a unique ceramic trophy bowl hand-crafted by Lucia King, a Page County-based artist. While results from the separate 35+ 3/4 race in the crit will not count towards the omnium, a special trophy bowl will be presented for that separate event as well.

Be sure to check out the Tour of Page County t-shirts as well!

Information on the Tour of Page County, including a technical guide and a copy of the flyer, may be found at www.pagevalleycycling.com.

We look forward to seeing you in Page County!
