Letter from the Race Director

On behalf of the race committee, welcome to the 39th annual Joe Martin Stage Race. For those who are first time participants, we want to thank you for making the trip.

We’re excited that this is our 14th consecutive year to be part of the USA Cycling Professional Race Tour (PRT) and our second year on the UCI America Tour calendar. The Joe Martin Stage Race has been and continues to be successful because of your support as teams and individuals. We feel very fortunate to once again have some of the top cyclists not only from across the USA, but from around the world competing in Northwest Arkansas.

The goal of the Joe Martin Stage Race is to bring a nationally and internationally competitive field of cyclists to our area and to expose our community to an exciting, colorful sport. I encourage you to enjoy some of the local flavor, get to know our residents, and take in some of the beautiful countryside as you’re rolling past.

It continues to be an honor and a privilege to have each of you at our race, and we hope and pray that you will have a safe, successful weekend. Please feel free to give the volunteers, our race committee or me feedback on how we can continue to make the race even better in the years to come.

Best of luck and God bless,

Bruce Dunn Race Director

Course: The course is 1.2 miles / 1.94 km long. A tough climb to the finish will challenge the field as the race progresses. There is NO warming up on the course. The course will be closed from 12:50 p.m. to 2 p.m. for a kid’s ride and to allow patrons of the Walton Art Center to access parking for a performance. Amateur events will be taking place throughout the day. A trainer warm-up area sponsored by CycleOps/Saris Cycling Group is available all day adjacent to the race announcer’s stage. Pits: There are 2 neutral pits on course, located immediately after turns one (just past the Start) & six (after the bottom of the long descent) from start/finish line. Shimano Neutral Race Support staffs both pits. One representative from each Pro Men and Pro Women’s team are allowed to provide assistance in each pit. Wheels in, wheels out will also be allowed. Due to limited wheel support area, please remove wheels immediately after your race finishes. The Joe Martin Stage Race is not responsible for wheels and equipment left in the service areas 30 minutes after a race has ended. Intermediate Sprints: At the Start/Finish line, about every 10 laps / 20 minutes (Men) and about every 5 laps / 10 minutes (Women). Sprint lap will start after the respective time has elapsed.

Mishaps: Free lap rule is in effect. Riders will not be permitted to reenter the race with less than 4 laps remaining. They will be given the time of the group they were with as determined by the panel of commissaires and will be placed behind riders completing the last lap of the race.

Time Limit: All riders about 80% behind the front of the main bunch or about to be lapped will be pulled from the race at the finish line by the officials and assigned a calculated time based on their average speed at the time they were pulled. Riders’ calculated or actual finishing times must be within 15% of the winner’s time. PRO TEAM CRITERIUM PARKING INFORMATION: Pro Men and Women teams with team-only vehicles are required to park in a team-designated area near the start/finish and within the course perimeter.
