THE BIKE RACE

The 1st Annual “Course des Coeurs” Unionville Race of the Hearts covers some of the most scenic and challenging countryside in Eastern Pennsylvania. The lollipop course heads westbound along Rt. 842 for 5 miles. The beginning of the 8 mile loop starts at Wilson Rd. and then heads to Rt. 841. The 3 different categories of racers will take 4, 5, and 6 loops respectively. The race has PA Bar approval and a pending USA Cycling Association approval.
It is not only the challenging course that will take your breath away, but also the beautiful countryside that you will be riding through. The wide expanse of thoroughbred farms through the area minimizes traffic interference.
We invite you to stay the night in the beautiful Brandywine Valley country side, and take in the nearby Willowdale Steeplechase, held the next day on May 10th.
Registrations are accepted online at www.bikereg. com, the “Official Online Registration Service” of PA Cycling Association. Additional surcharges could apply to enter the race electronically. Entry fee includes insurance surcharge of $3.
