Deadline for the website registration will close on July 7.
The Kaua‘i Stage Race consists of three phases: a Time Trial, a Criterium and a Road Race.
The Time Trials will start at 9 a.m. in Nawiliwili over a 10-lap course. In the A Heat, riders navigate 10 laps, each lap distance being 5.3 miles with a 315-foot elevation gain. B Heat riders roll for seven laps and C Heat riders travel five laps.
That phase will be followed by the Criterium held in the Vidinha Stadium parking lot where spectators, last year, were treated to a good share of excitement when afternoon showers added spice to the event.
The C Heat riders ride for 30 minutes and an additional lap starting at 3 p.m., July 10. B Heat riders ride for 45 minutes and an additional lap starting at 3:45 p.m. and the A Heat riders do a 60-minute run with an additional lap.
Sunday’s road race will be held over a scenic loop in the Puhi-Nawiliwili area with the A Heat riders starting at 7:30 a.m.
