INDIANA: Indianapolis - Nebo/Sycamore - Bloomington Velonews covers the Indiana Cyclocross series for over the weekend: "Saturday's race was held on a beautiful and smoking fast, rolling
course. The only things that could slow riders down were the 80+ degree
temperatures and a steep run-up with an extra-tall barrier at the
bottom. Attendance was fair for the still-developing ICX series, but
most of the participants seemed to come from the Indianapolis metro
area."
