WISCONSIN: Milwaukee - Cross the Domes / River Hill Park. RESULTS / RESULTS Maybe that should be Cross 'da Domes, but either way the Wisconsin cyclocross season is underway with a weekend double header. Cross the Domes is a rider favorite and River Hill Park in Kewaskum looked like a winner as well. After showing new riders how to ride cyclocross in his skills clinic on Friday, Brian Matter continued to school the rest of the class with wins on both Saturday and Sunday. Abby Strigel exchanged her MTB for a 'cross bike and continued her season's winning streak in the Pro Women's race with Alyssa Severn coming back from a DNF on Saturday to grab 2nd on Sunday. Sixteen year old Corrie Osborne, WI State Criterium Champion, silver medalist at Nationals, rounded out the podium. Big Ring Flyer's Julie Phelps grabs her second USAC victory of the season in the Cat. 3's, rapidly making a name for herself in sanctioned racing.

WISCONSIN: Hudson - Hudson Double Cross - day 2 - RESULTS - Again MCF takes the call: "In the Elite Men race, Doug Swanson, GrandStay, took the hole shot. As the field first crested the hill through the finish area, spectators where surprised to see Cullen in last place. He had a mechanical problem right after the start, and had to stop and dismount to fix the problem. After 1 lap, Swanson and Faulkner were in the lead, with Cullen chasing 15 seconds back, after switching bikes. Lap 2 saw Cullen take over the lead, with Faulkner chasing solo, and Swanson losing ground. Faukner rejoined Cullen at the front on Lap 4, with Roeser overtaking Swanson and chasing solo in 3rd. Cullen surged ahead on lap 5, and rode the last 6 laps solo to victory."
