Established in 2008, the Smokefree Perth Criteriums is Western Australia’s premier criterium series. The new Santos Sprint Classification will see a Santos sprint jersey awarded to the rider who tallies the most points after completing a series of sprints at pre-determined times.
At the conclusion of each race, the rider with the most sprint points will receive the Santos sprint leader’s jersey and wear it in the following race.
Santos WA & NT VP John Anderson said the new partnership further strengthened Santos’ support for cycling in the community.
“We are delighted to add another event to the likes of the Santos Tour Down Under and the Santos Great Bike Ride,” he said.
“Cycling promotes a healthy, active lifestyle and is an activity in which people of all ages can participate.”
The event runs from Saturday, 12 February, until Monday, 14 February, with Races 1-4 in Osborne Park, Town of Victoria Park, Town of Vincent and City of Fremantle respectively.
