The KMC Sage City Classic is a cycling road race held in Monticello, Illinois, featuring a scenic course through Piatt County. The event is designed to accommodate both competitive and recreational riders, offering smooth pavement, open terrain, and an enjoyable road racing experience in central Illinois. This race will be held on Saturday, August 22, 2026 with two distance options. The 50K is int

The 100K is a more competitive race that emphasizes endurance, pack riding, and race strategy. Riders registering for the 100K should be able to maintain a minimum average speed of 15 mph; participants who are unsure they can meet this pace are encouraged to select the 50K. Awards will be given to the top three overall male and female finishers in both races, with additional age group awards in the 100K.

100K Age Group award categories: 19 and under, 20-29, 30-39, 40-49, 50-59, 60-69, 70+

We want to give a big shout out to Michael Hicks, for his role in bringing the KMC Sage City Classic to life!

Michael was the one who brought the idea to us at Kirby Medical Center, created the routes, provided guidance on best cycling race practices, and played a huge role in making race day a success. We couldn’t have done it without him!

Michael is also a part of the Sage City Cycling group who hosted the Sage City Classic pre-ride earlier this month and went out to clear gravel and debris off the routes last week. Please join us in thanking them for their help!
