The US Pro course in WSNC

At the end of this month the 2016 US Pro Road Cycling National Championships will take place in Winston-Salem, NC and here are 2 videos from the course. The Volkswagen Para-Cycling and Masters USA National Championships also take place around that time but are not using the same course.

This video right below is sped up 4x the normal speed, thus allowing you to get a gist of the course without spending 38 minutes looking at a video.

The next video is one lap of the course at regular speed with traffic stops, a brief course error, and commentary.

The climb up Manly Street is likely where the race decision will be made. At the end of that climb is only about 0.5 of a mile to the finish.

Below is the course map of the course.

The videos were shot with a GoPro Sessions camera mounted above the handlebars of a Cervelo S5. There was traffic and I had to stop at traffic lights of course (around 10am on a weekday) plus I had to circumnavigate a construction site by hopping on a sidewalk. All of this should of course not be an issue on race day.
