After the devastating years due to the COVID-19 pandemic the St.Catharines Cycling Club (SCCC) plans on being at the forefront of a return to cycling as Government mandated infection prevention and control measures are lifted. In collaboration with Ontario Cycling the SCCC is proud to host the 2022 Harvard Grand Prix race series at the Dunnville Air Park’s auto track.

The Dunnville Air Park auto track when utilizing the infield section is a flat, 10 turn, 2.2 km course. The entire course is two lanes wide of pristine tarmac that widens out to nearly three lanes at the start/finish. Excellent tarmac, a wide roadway, sweeping corners and no obvious hazards on the course (e.g.- no curbs, trees, posts) will make for safe and fast racing!
