ILLINOIS: Chicago - This one comes courtesy of Rob Curtis (Team PSIMET)
(See his photo over on the left?). Obviously enjoying his first cyclocross race of the season!
WISCONSIN: Kansasville - Not 'breaking news' by any stretch of the imagination, but Dave Eckel (KS Energy) informs us that the back side of the Bong time trial course has been repaved. Not that it was that horrible before hand, but that should really make this already fast course, even faster (making exception to the rule that one should never hurry through a bong). The Bong loop has been the site of many time trials here in Wisconsin and this past weekend was the ABR Double Bong Time Trial (two laps). Matthew Busche (then IS Corps) won the 2009 WI State TT Champs here on this course and the next week, signed up with Kelly Benefit Strategies. The lap follows the perimeter of the Bong State Recreational Area which, back during WWII, was designated to be a US Air Force Base but it was never built. The runways were graded but never paved, but now serve the public in dog training, ATV riding, and such. This video shows part of the course.
MISSOURI: St. Louis - The Gateway Cup begins it's 4 day adventure this Friday, September 2nd in the Lafayette Square neighborhood with it's multi-category Twilight Criterium. Lets hope we get lots of information from the races as the series unfolds!
