The Aksarben Tirc is like Formula One on two wheels. This series brings together elite and amateur cyclists from across the country for criterium (crit) races in the Omaha, Nebraska metropolitan area. Watch as cyclists whip around tight turns lap after lap in this fast-paced, highly competitive race. The atmosphere is high-energy fun for the whole family with events and food all day long.
The Aksarben Tirc (Crit Nebraska backwards) is bringing racing back to Aksarben! This criterium race will be a high energy high paced event on the streets of Aksarben. A criterium is a bicycle race of a specified number of laps on a closed course over public roads closed to normal traffic. We like to describe it as Formula 1 on a bicycle! Join us in Aksarben Village on May 17 for a race like no other.
