The Lilac City Twilight Criterium is back!  The downtown Spokane crit presented by Spokane Rocket Velo will thrill riders and spectators alike as racers fly through the streets of the vibrant heart of Spokane. The 2012 race was received with great success and we aim to make the 2013 race will be bigger, better, and—dare we say—even faster!

And don't miss the Lilac City Crit Expo on the sidelines of the course. Check out local businesses and organizations as you watch the racing action. We are encouraging all local bike shops, bike clubs, and bike-related organizations to set up a tent in the expo area. If you would like to reserve a space at the expo, please contact Aaron Edwards for more information.
