The Voler Seward Park Thursday Night Cycling Series provides racers of all abilities the opportunity to test their legs, brains, and luck against the competition. Three separate races are offered to give riders at different ability levels a more appropriate challenge. All participants must sign a race waver and pin on their WSBA numbers or rent a race number for the evening. See below or download the race flyer for details.
