The Nature Valley Grand Prix is a six stage race with 118 starters, that was held in Saint Paul, Cannon Falls, Minneapolis, Mankato and Stillwater. The Nature Valley Grand Prix is part of USA Cycling's National Racing Calendar, a listing of the most important professional bicycle races in the country. The six-stage race marks round three of the Women's Prestige Cycling Series. Defending champions Kristin Armstrong returned to try and claim another title.
Pro racing is a dazzling sport that can only be fully appreciated in person. The roar of a motorcycle and shrill blasts from the course marshals’ whistles announce the approach of the racing pack.

You hear the buzz of their chains and clicks as they shift gears. Shoulder to shoulder and wheel to wheel, hard physical contact between pro racers is common and the risk of a sudden crash is ever present.
