The Marymoor Grand Prix is the fastest race on two wheels every summer, and it is this Friday and Saturday! Whether you’re a spectator or an athlete gearing up for competition, we thought it would be wise to run through all you can expect from the action-packed weekend of racing. And our thanks to RideITLikeUstoleIT!!! for their excellent promotional MGP video! Go check out his other fantastic videos over on Vimeo.
Registration Live – Get signed up
If you’re an athlete hoping to sign-up for the race, there is only one piece of advice we have for you: DON’T WAIT FOR THE DAY OF THE RACE TO REGISTER! It’s a good idea to learn from the past, and if the past tells us anything about the GP, it’s that the fields fill fast. In the past several years, we reached capacity in at least one of the fields before racing started. You MUST pre-reg if you want to race UCI. Online reg closes Wednesday 10pm, there is a last chance pre-reg Thursday from 4-7 at the velodrome.

And here’s a link to the Updated Schedule!
July 24th and 25th, mark the calendars and get ready for the fun! The past years of the Marymoor Grand Prix have been a huge success. The event has become and remains the cornerstone of international and national class competition in the Northwest, bringing some of track’s finest competitors to Redmond, Washington. So far, the event has drawn monumental crowds to watch US, Canadian and New Zealand Olympians, track junkies, sprinting specialists, record setters and Marymoor’s fastest in a wide variety of events.
With that out of the way, what else do you need to know about the racing? Oh nothing, except that World Champion Track Cyclist Sarah Hammer will be racing this year at the MGP! A 2012 Olympic Silver Medalist with the US Women’s Pursuit team, a multiple World’s Champion and a world record holder, Sarah is certainly a fast addition to the track this summer. Her impressive resume promises to heat things up around the velodrome this summer.
