The 2014 Cedar Hill Criterium was a tremendous success this year. Since then, your friendly neighborhood promoter and event crew have been very busy tidying up drone footage and drinking lots of beer. One of those things is actually very true. Truthfully, we did attempt to capture the day's exciting race experience for you, hope you enjoy (and apologize if our drone spooked you) and would be honored if you would share the fun with your teammates, friends, and family. More importantly, it's no secret, our success starts and ends with this amazing community of people surrounding Nashville, TN. We're proud to be a part of such a great community and we're more than excited to be able to give back by supporting the following important community initiatives.
