Riders started at Crown Center, went through Penn Valley Park, took Broadway up toward the convention centers then headed through Quality Hill. They crossed over toward Grand Avenue and went through the River Market before heading back toward downtown, passing the Sprint Center and ending back at Crown Center.

The race consisted of seven laps through a 10.2 mile circuit course.
Neighborhood viewing parties were scattered throughout the race at Berkley Riverfront Park, 17th and Summit, and the Power and Light District. (~~Casey Osburn)

- We lived in KC for 9 years and it's a great place to live. We've moved back to St.Louis but our son and family still live in KC so we get to visit often. I love the fountains, love Country Club Plaza...and really love the Christmas lights and how the make a big deal of it on Thanksgiving night. Crown Center is great too! Really good places to eat in KC.
