Everything happens on Sunset. The Redlands Bicycle Classic has been won and lost time and time again on its epic final stage. Sunset’s design is perhaps one of the coolest for community spectation, with an immediate long uphill drag lined with palm trees pulling the field to the city’s neighborhood on the hill, where the course pitches and twists on narrow technical roads 9 times over, steadily wearing down the field on their fifth day of racing, and providing a perfect launchpad for daring last day stage or GC bids. It’s a feat to complete all of the circuits up high—it’s another level to make it back down to the downtown and race the stage’s finale: 3 laps of the crit course in a dramatically reduced group, where final time bonuses can still change GC. To win the Sunset stage is the stuff of legends and something that every North American rider dreams about. This year’s edition brought a downward temperature swing and the rain—a little more elemental chaos for an already attritional stage. Our small team went into the week with our focus really on the last three days—and ultimately the last day, knowing how much is at stake in riding Sunset well. Cycling is so often a heartbreaker though, and adversity is a regular element. Some extra nerves in the peloton resulted in three small crashes on the way up to the circuits, and sadly our Cara was caught up in the very first one. Coming back to the field on the course’s opening uphill drag after slamming hard is an extremely hard task and wasn’t manageable after this. Positively, we celebrated a very strong ride from our guest Arielle—we positioned her forward carrying into the beginning of the circuits, and she made it with the first group for 7 out of 9 of the upper laps as the rain came down. That’s a ride to be proud of—especially as a medical resident in an ICU rotation in her second Redlands ever—and we’re ultimately proud to have been able to rep the S&M jersey here at the 40th annual RBC, even when all things didn’t manifest as we dreamed. Big shoutout to our PNW pal @kent__ross of @cascadiacyclingteam on realizing a dream and winning Sunset in the men’s race!! 📸 @blakedahlin

Crit day, stage 4 of this year’s @redlandsclassic, brought us some fun, some flow, and some reward! On a notoriously hard, technical course of +/- 300 corners over an elapsed 75 minutes, where the biggest teams were pulling out all the stops to secure jerseys, we snuck in behind the final leadouts and secured a 5th for Cara & 7th for Arielle. Not shabby at all. We love crit day ⚡️ 📸 @blakedahlin ✨ #TeamSandMCX #RedlandsBicycleClassic #wherelegendsareborn #womenscycling #doitthehardway

@redlandsclassic, stages 2 & 3: blisteringly fast in two very different ways. Stage 2 was wide open, fast, and nervous, with a 140 rider bunch ready to prove something in the first mass stage. 43.2 miles in 1h 39m left minimal margin for error. The intention was to be safe and conserve energy. Both Kim & Brenna were involved in a fast crash but came away intact and uninjured, while Arielle’s bike took a blow hard enough to break it in the final, but without bodily harm. Onward. Stage 3 featured a huge descent followed by a progressively steepening, narrowing, twisting climb in its 4.5mi circuit. With 9 laps on tap, and intense battles for the QOM and overall GC unfolding, we knew today would be a hard day. With the biggest teams challenging and testing each other, we hoped to keep Cara and Arielle as close to the front as possible. We head into today’s very technical 9 corner crit with plenty to play for, as racing this stage will yields high return in the 5 day effort that is the Redlands Classic, and every year’s edition always yields a dramatic battle on the closing stage, the Sunset Loop. 📸✨ @blakedahlin #TeamSandMCX #womenscycling #RedlandsBicycleClassic #wherelegendsareborn #sellwoodcyclerepair

The 40th edition of the @redlandsclassic is officially underway, with the Stage 1 Lake Perris TT now behind us. A very cool, engaging, & technical circuit around the contours of the lake yielded some blazingly fast times. We stayed up in the mix and are looking forward to the bunch stages ahead. This year’s field hosts a record 142 starters, with a huge breadth of experience in and around the field, and it’s an honor to be here amongst that. Road racing ain’t dead! Ready for some more speedwork tomorrow in the Stage 2 Hangar 24 Circuit Race where potential is everywhere. #TeamSandMCX #redlandsclassic #wherelegendsareborn #womenscycling #longlivetheindependentbikeshopteam 📸✨ @blakedahlin
