EVENT INFORMATION
About The Tour
The Pasadena Center Operating Company is proud to host, for a second year, Stage 7 of the Amgen Tour of California. The AMGEN Tour of California will bring the drama and excitement of a professional bicycle stage race to Pasadena. The world’s top professional teams will compete over an eight-day, 650-mile race on a route that includes the California redwoods, wine country and the Pacific Coast.
This unique, nine-day “rolling festival” through California has become the most successful race in the US. With more than 4 million spectators over the past three years, the 2008 race drew 1.6 million spectators, setting records for a single sporting event in California and for any cycling event ever held on U.S. soil. This Tour de France-style road race features elite pro cycling teams from around the world competing for the highest prize purse of any cycling race in North America.
