SF Sprints 3, fixed gear event San Francisco

26 May 2012, San Francisco, California

“This year brings something new to the table. For SF Sprints 3 the race will take place during the afternoon instead of the night, this is for two reasons: 1) It’s a whole hell of a lot less cold during the day and 2) It’s a whole hell of a lot easier to take pictures during the day.

The biggest of the changes has to do with how things will run on race day. This year everyone races by themselves until the very last, champion deciding race. Each racer gets two heats where they’ll race against the clock, the fastest of their two times is then used as their only time. The two racers who have the fastest runs will go head to head leaving just one winner.”
