The Amgen Bike Tour - Stage 4 - Into Clovis Today

The Amgen Bike Tour - Stage 4 - Into Clovis Today

 

The Amgen Bike Tour of California arrives to Clovis today. Some are suggesting you just take the day off so you can enjoy all the action! You make that call, but here’s all the info so you can decide.

We’re part of Stage 4 which begins in Sonora, ending this afternooon, May 16th, in Clovis at Pollasky and Bullard. The time is guestimated for mid afternoon.

 It sure was exciting back in 2009, so if we’ve learned anything – get there early to get a spot along the route so you can see well. The festival atmosphere includes food and merchandise booths too.
