The Escape Velocity Spring Series kicks off this Sunday, March 6th, in Langley, BC. Tradition continues with the flat and windy River Road course serving as the first race. Returning this year after a one year hiatus are Cycling BC upgrade points in the "B" and "C" group.

The Spring Series is a month-long pre-season race series that offers the perfect venue for riders from all over the Pacific Northwest to dust off the race bike and get started on the race season. It offers all levels of riders, from first-time racers to seasoned professionals. All proceeds go towards dEVo, the youth road racing arm of Escape Velocity.
