3 Days of Criterium Pandemonium
Confluence Cup
Who said Road is Dead?! We are bringing Crit racing back to the heartland with a 3 day racing weekend that will have you knowing that the only thing silent about Des Moines are the “S’s”. Our race series will highlight the absolute best that our city has to offer kicking off the action in the brand new Market District with an eliminator style race that is sure to knock the cobwebs loose. Then we will head to a new venue for 2026 that is still getting dialed in (more info soon). For the grand finale of the weekend we will return to Ingersoll Avenue for the 2026 Iowa State Criterium Championship. If you missed that one last year you might want to consider calling off work Monday it was so much fun.
Cross is Coming!
We are back and hosting year 2! On private property just outside of Des Moines with over 200 registrants and around 400 spectators on year one. Our event will feature racing under the stars and light towers on a grueling 1.6 mile course. With food trucks and live music for the 2-day event, it’s a party that is not to be missed.
Building community… One race at a time!
We race bikes so we know how to throw a race that will be remembered for years to come!
At Cross Chain Productions our team specializes in elevating events to appeal to not only the racer but to the greater community. If you are a seasoned veteran racer or a community member looking to get in to riding bikes we will have an event for you! We encourage you to attend one of our events to be embraced by the greater cycling community.
