July 22
Day one will feature a full schedule of criterium racing at the Warsaw/Perry Airfield, making for a
great free spectator event and an awesome race venue. This fast, wide course offers four turns in
just under a mile with the slightest bit of uphill gain and a full view of the airfield. Just as in
the past, we will have cash primes, professional timing, a full staff of USAC officials, and Bike
Loft East Neutral Support will provide neutral wheels and bikes in the pit.

Throughout the day, Rochester Sky Divers will also perform jumps at the airfield, and we will award
a FREE JUMP gift certificate to the most aggressive rider across all fields.

Additionally, we will host a 2-mile run in the morning where we will award a Custom Rock trophy to
the winner of both the Men’s and Women’s overall fields, free entry to kids 12 and under for the
run and a free kids bike race (see online reg page for details)

The first 150 athletes (riders and runners combined) for Saturday’s races will receive a free pair
of custom event socks. Event posters, t-shirts, and food will be available for sale in the
spectator tent.

July 23
Day two will host our newest event: The Rock Road Race in Avon, NY. Races will be held on a 19-mile
loop with 700 feet of elevation per lap that will feature downtown Avon and some of the best rural
roads Livingston County has to offer. Riders who register before July 10 will get a free event
t-shirt and just like for the crit, we will have professional timing, a full staff of USAC
officials, and Bike Loft East Neutral Support providing services to all fields.

Simultaneously, we will also host the Rock Gran Fondo for the third year in a row from the same
start finish/line as the races. The Fondo is a non-competitive ride with distances for all
abilities (30, 50, 75 mile options). Our long course still features the monster climbs of Vista and
Mead Hills and all offer beautiful country roads and routes that include Conesus Lake, on course
rest stops and roving mechanical support.

All fondo riders who enter before July 10 will also receive a free event shirt. See our website or
online reg page for course details.
