Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Yes, the BaseCamp Int' formerly the Ricola GP is a hidden gem among pro races here in the US.
A 1.1 mile course with 8 turns! Not a typical snooze-type criterium at all. For some reason it does not get much attention, but I think it is one of the more exciting races on the circuit. The reaction from the locals is equally as nonplused. A shame really. 15k in prize money doesn't hurt either!
