2010 Amgen Tour of California Rolls into Modesto Wednesday

Road closures and no parking zones in and around Downtown Modesto beginning Tuesday evening.

   Modesto will once again host the Amgen Tour of California on Wednesday, May 19, where cyclists from around the world will complete two circuit laps of the downtown Modesto area before finishing at the intersection of 12th and I Streets. This is an exciting event that requires several road closures and no parking zones, meaning that before, during and after the race there will be limited access to parts of Modesto.

   The descriptions below and map outline when and where the closures will take place, please plan accordingly for any travel between 6:30 p.m. on Tuesday, May 18, and 11:30 p.m. on Wednesday, May 19. Better yet – Wednesday is also Bike to Work Day, avoid road closure and no parking zones all together and Bike to Work (click here for more information) a free bike corral will be available. We hope to see you along the race route or at the finish line to cheer on these talented and renowned cyclists!
