Any idea how long the course is? That park is huge.

I'm hoping for something long and wide open... Almost like a road race.

Each loop of the course takes about 12 to 15 minutes to ride. Chicrosscup.com will have more description. I hope this helps.

I will most likely be there. The only concern I had was that it was the same week as Thanksgiving and we are planning to be out of town, but it seems like everyone is OK with me staying in town to race and then heading out that night.
