2010 Criterium Cycling Race - Speed Week



The 2010 USA CRITS Sutheastern Series professional bike race peddled through Walterboro during the afternoon of April 18. Criterium bicycle racing is defined as a race on a circuitous track. Walterboro's Washington Street (or Main St.) is blocked off to set up a long straitaway that is used for the start/finish line of the races on the one-kilometer closed course. The weather on this late spring day was crisp and cool and made for good racing conditions and really brought out the spectators to enjoy the amateur races beforer the men's and women's pro races.
