Sooooo....
The Illinois Cup schedule is out. I think most of the changes (shorter, earlier season) are great. Interesting move in eliminating what was probably the biggest (on numbers) class (masters 4/5). As a fat guy who sucks at both hills and road races, though, I'm a bit surprised that there aren't much in the way of road races or (from what I can tell) hilly crits. I suppose that if Leland or Dixon aren't interested, though, there's not much they can do.
