Greetings guys:
Working on our master schedule for next year and I'm looking for a name or link to the race on April 5 or 6 (2008) that was held right along the WI/Ill border at a race track. Checking it's status for next year......

Thanks in advance!

Cool race. Nice chance to bum around the car track. Was there, took pix, but it was before I started my page, will return in '09.

Thanks John.
I knew that wouldn't take long. Couldn't find the old thread on it.

I'm pretty sure S. Beloit = no paying tolls too (always got to have that Zip-Loc bag of quarters for Ill. races.), another bonus.

That was a really fun, well run race.
Biggest fields I saw all year in the 4's.
It was flat but crazy windy.

Thanks for the heads up on the entire ICA sked.
Not sure how many races out of Wisc. I'll be doing in '09, but it's fun putting the prospective schedule together.

I can recall the first spring races being in April (with snow) and ending just before
school started in the end of August - The End ... FIN!

March 29 through early December? Whoa ... that's a long cycling season! :)
