The Tokeneke Classic is a USA Cycling sanctioned bicycle road race around the Barkhamsted reservoir in central Connecticut. The challenging 22-mile loop was chosen for the terrain and spectacular beauty. The Tokeneke Classic is once again, both the CT State Championship and the New England Regional Road Race Championship. As such, it draws a very competitive field.
For each Category, the field completes from one to four 22-mile laps, with Juniors and Cat-5's completing one lap and the mileage increases with each level. See the Flyer for more details.
The 2016 edition of the Tokeneke saw 381 racers in 13 separate fields including a Pro1/2 field. The Pro1/2 field had 54 racers competing in a 4-lap, 88-mile race. The finishing sprint flattens out, but it comes at the end of a 2-mile, 4% climb.
