The CRCA Mengoni Grand Prix is CRCA’s longest running open race. Alongside the Lou Maltese Memorial the Mengoni Grand Prix is one of the most prestigious events in New York City and with a $7,600 prize pool in 2014 distributed among five fields (with potential for more based on registration numbers) it is also one of the highest paying events in the region. Each year the race also features highly popular kid’s races for the next generation of New York City cyclists.
