Nanazi Critérium & Kids Race 2026 Autumn (OCK Critérium Series 3rd Round) (灘崎クリテリウム＆キッズレース2026秋（OCKクリテリウムシリーズ第3戦）)

On October 12, 2026, cyclists will gather for an exhilarating criterium race on an almost oval-shaped course that offers nearly flat terrain. This unique track is designed to challenge racers with tight corners and quick accelerations around the bends.
The event features a competitive open class where participants are divided into categories based on their performance in qualifying rounds. As a result, riders of similar skill levels compete against each other, ensuring an engaging experience for all involved. For those new to racing or unfamiliar with group riding dynamics, there's also a beginner class specifically tailored to help them ease into the sport.
The autumn edition takes place counterclockwise around the track, adding another layer of challenge and excitement as riders navigate the course in reverse compared to previous events. The open class (A final) will culminate in series champion awards for competitors who excel across three consecutive races.
This criterium promises a dynamic atmosphere with intense racing action from start to finish, making it an unmissable event for both seasoned cyclists and newcomers alike.
