“The Mission Crit” is a harrowing bike race with hairpin turns on fixies

Get ready for a fully legal, closed course bike race in the Mission District. Mission Crit features two 120 degree turns. Spectating should be good and harrowing.

The rules? No brakes, no levers, no lights no water bottles (don’t worry, you won’t have time to take a sip anyway). To get a feel for the race read about it and see more photos on Mission Mission.
