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.
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.
