RED HOOK CRITERIUM

The 2010 Red Hook Criterium is an unsanctioned bicycle race through a desolate post-industrial area of Brooklyn. Track bikes are mandatory for the riders and the field consists of semi-professional 'roadies', bike messengers, and urban cyclists. The first person to cross the finish line at the completion of 20 laps will take home the famed cobblestone trophy...
