Morganton We are bringing back a classic. The Morganton Cycling Classic was a staple in the NC cycling community for years.  Event promoter, Zach Lail, moved away and the event went into hibernation for a few years.  Now that Zach is back in the area, he has banded together with Charlotte Sports Cycling and Sledge Hammer Charlie's Cycling Team to bring back the event and make it a part of the 8th Annual Crossroads Classic.

Morganton has vibrant downtown filled with great restaurants, galleries, a movie theatre, and cozy parks.  The race course will travel around the Historic Courthouse in Downtown Morganton.  For visitors information on the area, check out the Burke County Travel and Tourism website.

Directions:   Travel I-40 to Exit #105, HWY 18/Downtown Morganton. Take HWY 18/S Sterling St North into Downtown Morganton.

Registration:  Registration will be located near the start/finish line.  Registration will open at 8:00AM and close 30 minutes prior to each race. 
Course:  A classic southeast course .9 of a mile in length. The course is "L" shaped route featuring 6 corners, a fast downhill section, a small short climb and a wide, fast, false flat finish all on excellent roads.
Parking The best place to park is between E Union St and E Concord St on the east side of the race course.  The best street to access the parking is Bouchelle St.
