Operating in tandem with the Herman Miller Grand Cycling Classic, the 2011 USA Cycling Professional Criterium National Championship will take place August 20 in Grand Rapids, Michigan. The Grand Cycling Classic follows a classic six-turn criterium course in the heart of downtown Grand Rapids, where competitors will ride over sections of the historic red brick street pavers.

This will also mark the first time the Pro Crit National Championship is an American-only race. The first man to cross the line dons the Stars-and-Stripes!
