Senior and professional riders representing top US cycling teams are expected to race in the men’s 90 minute main event, which is the last race of the day. Women’s Junior’s and Master’s races also are planned.  Strawser says  racers come for the purse and to say they have raced in the famous Nevada City Classic.
