Southern California Cycling Results – 2018

SPDNX Stampede returns with Vol. 7 as we go back to where it all began for us in Temecula. Enjoy a full pull day of gravel riding and beautiful accommodations at Palumbo Winery October 6th.

The Venue

As true to the make up to the Stampede events we want to create an atmosphere that is worth your time. No parking lots or bike shops to host our rides but the beautiful Palumbo Winery where the back drop to your post Stampede ride falls into the more then epic category. Enjoy a top notch meal with your choosing of beer and/or wine and sit back and enjoy our live music on hand. Be sure to be rockin that smile all day post ride as we know you will so you can get great photos and video of the good times as we will have our media crew on hand.

The first-ever Hillclimb World Championships was designed as a fun challenge up the (in)famous Gibraltar Road in Santa Barbara. Our theme was race at the front, party at the back, but a lot of folks were (understandably) concerned about the words race and uphill in the same sentence. The timed race category will continue this year for all age groups, but we’re also adding a Fondo option for 2019, with a fun, challenging, and fully-supported route that won’t be a race in any way, but will share a finish with the World Championships, so you can cheer for your friends and heckle your enemies on course.

30 mile out and back gravel time trial event. Challenging, but not technical course through Black Canyon to Mesa Grande and back. 2850 feet of total climbing with almost all the route on gravel roads.

Due to the unprecedented times we are experiencing, and discussions with our stake holders we have decided to cancel this year’s Chevron Manhattan Beach Grand Prix bike race that was scheduled for July 19, 2020. Although this was a difficult decision, the safety of our riders, spectators, sponsors and the community are our top priority. Thank you to all our past riders, sponsors, spectators, first responders, Chevron, the City of Manhattan Beach and everyone else that have supported us over the past 58 years. We look forward to seeing you at the 59^th Chevron Manhattan Beach Grand Prix in 2021!

Stay safe and healthy.
