Course

The pre-race activities like packet pickup and expo take place is the heart of Miami. On race day, make the trip out to Miami’s western edge, and race past the tropical wetlands of The Everglades. The Everglades are a natural wonder. This expansive marshland ecosystem is home to sawgrass prairies, cypress trees, Spanish moss, and fauna.

The race starts and finishes at the Miccosukee Resort & Casino. Ample parking and pre-race facilities are available. Line up in the start corrals on the Miccosukee Resort property. When the race starts, make the right turn onto Krome Avenue and head south.

GFNY racers will have one lane of Krome Avenue closed to cars for GFNY, in each the northbound and southbound direction. Each direction has two lanes and the inside lane will be for GFNY racers exclusively, enforced by police, cones and traffic control equipment. The northbound and southbound lanes are divided by a grassy median.

Head southbound for 5 miles, then make a u-turn and head northbound for 17 miles. At the north end, make another u-turn and head back south. After 12 miles, the medium route riders will reach their finish line at Miccosukee Resort & Casino, completing the 35-mile loop one time. The long route riders will continue straight until the southern u-turn, and then head back north, and then make the final u-turn and ride south. Long route riders will complete the 35-mile loop two times.

The average elevation on the course is 6ft, making GFNY Miami the flattest course of the GFNY World circuit. But be ready: strong winds will shape pelotons and thwart attacks.

A festive post-race party back will await you at Miccosukee: A cheer beer from Michelob ULTRA, your medal, post-race meal, DJ, awards ceremony, photos and camaraderie.

The Michelob Ultra GFNY Miami 2024 will serve as the North American Championship. It will also serve as a test race for a professional cycling race that will be added in 2025.
