The Chain of Lakes Cycling Classic in Winter Haven will enter its 11th year in 2020 with renewed high hopes to bring premier bike racing to Polk County. Spectators are welcome at these events. All proceeds from this year’s event will go to the Humane Society of Polk County, Polk County’s only no-kill animal shelter.

Sunday in Downtown Winter Haven, the criterium’s start/finish line will be adjacent to the peaceful and beautiful Central Park in downtown Winter Haven (346 West Central Ave.). Perhaps the greatest downtown small town criterium courses in the state, this venue offers so many great viewing opportunities that its hard to decide where the best place to watch actually is. Come out and enjoy this fast-paced family event!
