The 62nd Annual Chevron Manhattan Beach Grand Prix draws amateur and professional cyclists from around the country.

The 1.3-mile course circles counterclockwise from the Joslyn Center to 15th Street, up Ardmore to Pacific Ave., and back down Valley. All told, the course features two long straightaways, two sweeping 180° turns, and 50 feet of climbing per lap. Race fans traditionally line the streets to cheer on the riders as their endurance is worn away with each uphill climb.

The event begins with a mile run starting at 7:00 a.m. Bike races continue throughout the day, with a highlight being the kids' race at noon.
