The 40th annual Athens Twilight Criterium took place the weekend of April 26. The bike race takes over downtown Athens, turning the streets and sidewalks into a spectacle to behold.

As part of the festivities, King BMX stunt show performed five shows — two on Friday and three on Saturday. With a few ramps and a section of College Avenue blocked off, the riders performed a set of acrobatic tricks for spectators.

Zach Shugan is a senior majoring in journalism at the Grady College of Journalism and Mass Communication at The University of Georgia.
