Gateway Cup

Big Shark Bicycle Co. presents Missouri’s top cycling event over Labor Day weekend.

The Bommarito Audi West County Gateway Cup features four days of racing by some of the best professional and amateur cyclists, who will put on a show as they zip around Lafayette Square, Francis Park, The Hill and Florissant.

The full tilt races showcase “criterium format” racing on one-mile laps. This Americanized style of racing appeals to both athletes and spectators as the peloton speeds by the crowd every few minutes, holding lines only inches apart from one another.

Watch the race develop lap after lap and hear commentators announce race strategy as the excitement builds.
