The deadline is nearing for the 30-minute Tour de Tysons bike race around Tysons this weekend.
The race is scheduled for Saturday (March 16) and, unlike most races, is ranked by how far the cyclists can ride. Adult races range from 30 minutes to one hour, while the race for children is around 20 minutes.
All of the men’s categories until the 1:45 p.m. time slot are currently filled, but there are still a few spaces at that time and open spaces for women and children throughout the day.
Registration for the race is $35 for adults and $15 for children.
The event is hosted by the Tysons Partnership and the National Capital Velo Club.
Cyclists who are not registered with the Mid-Atlantic Bicycle Racing Association will be required to purchase a one-day license with cash at the race.
The event, featuring 10 races from 8 a.m.-5 p.m., has drawn 300 competitors in previous years.
