Four Weeks to Go: Grant's Tomb Criterium
Believe it or not we are just three weeks from the start of race season and four weeks from the one of the biggest races of the entire year in New York City: the CRCA Grant's Tomb Criterium. With this year's edition serving as (a very early) State Criterium Championship we dug through our archives to start building the #hype for one of the best races in the region.
Looking back on the past three editions - from the cold rainstorm of 2015 to a beautiful day touching fifty degrees in 2016 and of course last year's brutal, frigid cold streak - we have been through just about every weather condition imaginable at Grant's. Check out the full archives below and particularly if you are new to the event don't miss CityMD Women's Racing guide to the race (and the course) from last year.
