Foothill College hosts its second annual Learning Curve Bike Circuit Race, at which some 400 cyclists are expected to peddle around the 1.09-mile campus loop road, Sunday, July 1, in Los Altos Hills. Race-day registration opens at 7:15 a.m. The first race begins at 8 a.m., and additional race start times will be scattered throughout the day until the last race at 4:10 p.m.

The all-day event is a fundraiser and proceeds will be used to build a pedestrian/bike path from El Monte Road to the pedestrian bridge that creates safer access for students and the community. Foothill College is teaming up with the Los Gatos Bicycle Racing Club www.lgbrc.org to present the race. Held under USAC rules, the Foothill College Learning Curve Circuit Race is a member of the Lance Armstrong Junior Race Series.

Race categories include juniors, elite men, elite women and masters. The entry fee per race for juniors (ages 10-18) is $15; entry fees for all others are $30-$35 per race. Online registration is available at foothillcollegecircuitrace.com. Participants must present a current USA Cycling License at registration. A one-day or annual license may be purchased during online registration as well as on race day. There are no refunds.
