With the closing laps of Sunnyview Cross and the upcoming Wisconsin State Championship, so ends the 2024 WICX Series season.

We had a blast, but we would also like to take this moment to grab some of your thoughts on how your season went, what you loved, maybe what you didn’t love so much, and any other thoughts on the future.

It’s 5 pages and shouldn’t take more than 5 minutes to fill out. The survey will close on Sunday, November 24 at midnight.

The survey period has closed.

Thanks for your contributions towards making this series the best that it can be.

The Wisconsin cyclocross scene burns bright this year with lots of action within—and around—the WICX Series. Thankfully we have an extra week before Thanksgiving this year, because there was a lot to cram in, with a total of 21 opportunities to race cross in the state.

Let’s break it down

The 2024 WICX Series offers 14 races to compete for series points. This includes 3 new race venues in St. Francis, Muskego and Kenosha.

Added to that, we’ve got 2 championship races: Midwest Regional Champs, coming in October, and regular mainstay Wisconsin State Champs at the end of the season.

Peppered throughout the schedule are also 4 non-series UCI-caliber races. This includes an upgrade to the Englewood CX race, which is now a 2-day, C2-classified race and is the USA Cycling Cyclocross National Series opener. Then a month later we are treated to the Trek CX Cup weekend, which has closes out the USCX pro cyclocross points series.

And finally, you won’t want to miss the crazy stylings and feats of strength of the SSCXWC (Single Speed Cyclocross World Championship), which are being brought to Wisconsin this year.

Fire up the bike washing machines, cuz it’s gonna be a heck of a season.

Those who are veterans of the sport will see a lot of familiar races in a lot of familiar places, but in the same tradition of bringing cyclocross back to Camrock and Sheboygan (last year), we are also bringing cyclocross back to Doyne Park in Milwaukee this year. The last time we posted our team tents up at Doyne was in 2014 and we’re excited to see the fresh possibilities of this dis-used golf course.

Plus, fresh off the Englewood Open XCO mountain bike race this past weekend, it’s also nice to see the return of Englewood CX for a second year.

Sign up to race (Coming soon)

And of course, slotted in the middle of our local series is the Trek CX Cup, which brings world-class racers from across the pond and into our back yard. The CX Cup is not a part of our little series, but we do recommend everyone pretend it is and get out there and race. This year the CX Cup is the lone World Cup race in the United States, so if you want to see your favorite international racers, this will be your only chance.

The WICX Series once again concludes at the Trek headquarters with the Wisconsin State Championship.

New to cyclocross?

Cyclocross is short form bicycle racing that consists of many laps over a winding course of mixed terrain (such as grass, mud, trails, gravel and concrete), and may include features that involve temporarily dismounting and carrying your bicycle to navigate obstacles, like logs, barriers or sand-pits or to run up steep inclines.It mixes multiple athletic endeavors, namely riding and running, with a strong emphasis on skillful bike handling.

Those who are new to cyclocross can jump into any Cat 5 race on any day, with (nearly) any style of bike they please, but we recommend reading up on some of the basic rules and check out our pre-race prep tips to make the most of your experience.

See you in September. #crossiscoming #crossisalwayscoming

NOTE: This schedule, while mostly finalized, may be subject to change by the time the season starts. All the juicy details of each race will be added to the official schedule as they arrive, and when they do you will be able to sign up for each race there as well.

We are holding a virtual promoter meeting on Monday, May 22 at 7 PM to discuss and finalize the series schedule for 2023 and answer any questions you may have. If you did not receive an email invitation, please let us know ASAP.

To ensure prompt entry to the meeting, please download and install Microsoft Teams before the day of the event.

Our allegiant announcer, Paul Warloski of Simple Endurance Coaching has broken down the overall winners of the 2022 WICX Series based on the (arguably more popular) people’s 9-race criteria, but also notes the (definitely more official) winners from the 10-race criteria.

(If you want to know more about that clerical disaster, check over here.)

Warloski also listed his picks for Riders of the Year (unofficial) which celebrate the superlative participants, based on performance and attitude. It ain’t all about the podium.

Check it out.
