The Crit will coincide with the 3rd stage of the Amgen Tour of California bike race that starts in San Jose, continues north through rolling East Bay hills, proceeds clockwise around Mt Diablo and comes back for an exciting downtown finish in Livermore.

Last year produced a dynamic environment where cyclists and entrepreneurs shared ideas in a low key setting. This year will be similar but on a grander scale as we have invited successful entrepreneurs, government representatives, members of various stages of private finance, academia, scientists, and a select group of start-ups. In addition to clean tech there will also be software, social media and more traditional brick and mortar companies in attendance.. Ultimately, we envision a few hours of relationship and community building for some world class people coupled with a premier bike race.
