Ryukyu CRIT in Chatan 2026 Supported by SMC

About this event

Held in Chatan Town, Okinawa Prefecture, 'Ryukyu CRIT in Chatan 2026 Supported by SMC' is a criterium race featuring fixed-gear bikes (track bikes). A criterium is a type of fast-paced and strategic bicycle road race where competitors complete multiple laps around a short circuit set up on public city roads or parks, often described as 'F1 on city streets.' Because the course is short and contained, it requires less large-scale traffic control and security, making it easier to hold within urban areas. A key feature is the close distance between spectators and riders, offering an immersive sense of excitement and unity. In addition to the fixed-gear criterium, the event will feature beginner workshops, novelty bicycle mini-races, kids' bicycle safety workshops, and kids' races. Guests can also enjoy complimentary food and drinks at the after-party. Set against Chatan Town's charming streets and seaside, this is a resort-style event enjoyable for both cyclists and families.
