Flat, open course with strong wind = heavy tactics and short sprints.
Lots of looking around, hollering at each other. What ever. :rolleyes:
So, let's play NAME THAT TEAM
Here's the teams that showed up today. Name that team and it's home town.
Some of them I don't know. If all can be named, I'll add more from other local races.
(Not all are accounted for in this bunch - I know this, so don't tell me that. :p )
(Sorry these pics are so big ... I thought I made them smaller)

I'm not familiar with most of them. The ones I know are:
1. Beans&Barley
6. WDT
9. Athletes By Design
11. Baraboo Sharks
13. Wheel and Sprocket
I'm not familiar with the others, although some of the kits are readable, but I'll leave that as an exercise.

I filled in a few. That just leaves that Excel Sports kit left. Will have to look in the results to see if he is from out of the area.
Good job!
Will look for the missing teams in my pix when I get home in the AM.

32. Brone's Bike Shop - LaCrosse?
33. PCW?
Well, PCW is now Gear Grinders (listed above), and Brones' kit from last year was green / white. Researching that shows that "MRS" #34 is River Valley Cycling Club, Brone's.
Good guess though!

Well, PCW is now Gear Grinders (listed above),
incorrect.
Or, if they are, #33 is then a GearGrinders rider wearing the old PCW kit (http://pcwcycling.org/).
32 and 34 appear to be the same team, thus 32 is also River Valley Cyclists

Well, PCW isn't on the WCA list of active clubs, but you are correct ... that IS last year's PCW kit + you are also right, that is another (different) MRB kit!
