The Buffalo Bicycling Club is opening our USAC Sanctioned season with the Marilla Spring Classic Road Race! This course is a racer-favorite, so we're starting the year off right! Held on a rolling loop with some short, punchy rollers and an uphill sprint finish. As part of the Buffalo Bicycling Club's commitment to grow women's cycling, all women's fields at our USAC sanctioned events are free of charge!

We intend on running this early season race as a no-frills USA Cycling sanctioned race. All racers who earn USA Cycling upgrade points based on their field size (Top 3 if 5-10 starters, Top 6 if 11-20 starters, Top 7 if 21-49 starters, Top 9 if 50-69 starters, Top 11 if 70+ starters) will be placed immediately in the results, with others receiving a "DNP- did not place" status. Safety is a top priority for the Buffalo Bicycling Club, and all corners will be properly marshalled and marked.
