Route Description
Beginning from the Harbor Start Pens, you’ll ride a short lead-in to the Castle Park Sprint arch. This arch marks the start and finish line of the Twilight Crit circuit.
From the start line, you’ll head out of Castle Park, through the park lot, then turn to head north before making a hard left to head south to Neokyo Harbor. From here, the rest of your lap is the lead-in you already completed… turning left from the main road to the twisty, rolling white stone of Castle Park.
Use the slight downhill leading into the sprint to gather a full head of steam, then keep the power up all the way through the line for a chance at the green jersey.
That’s one lap down. How about another?
