WHAT. A. FINISH. 🏁

The 2026 Race Avenue Criterium was incredible, and we want to thank everyone who made it special. From the racers and volunteers to our sponsors and the entire Lancaster community, we truly appreciate everyone who came out and supported the event.

The Men’s Pro 1/2/3 race delivered one of the closest finishes we’ve ever seen. In fact, 2nd and 3rd place were separated by just hundredths of a second—a photo finish that came right down to the line! Congrats to Alec Ratzell for the win 🥇, Davey Dawson for the incredible bike throw for 2nd 🥈 & to Derek Simpson for third 🥉.

Thank you for helping us bring another year of racing to Race Avenue and for supporting The Peyton Walker Foundation and Huddle For Hearts.

📸 More photos are coming shortly.
