Tour of Americas Dairyland
Hey everybody. This will be my second year racing and i want to race in some of the Cat 4/5 races during The tour of Americas dairyland. I want to know what to expect if anyone has raced these before. I live in wisconsin so i know its fairly flat. But are there any races in particular to try or to watch out for? I'm 16 if that means anything. Thanks.

It's the best organized racing in WI. I did the whole series last year as a three and am doing it again this year. You will save yourself a lot of money if you pre-reg. The road race in Greenbush is awesome, Downer Ave. is a must race also, but if you have the time money and drive, it's definitely worth it to do the whole tour.

I did the whole series last year as a 5 and it was great. Super well organized.
Downers ave was a great experience but by far the most dangerous race of the series(cat 4/5 at least), not because of the course or conditions, but rather the racers themselves, a lot of pushing and shoving.
I'm personally looking forward to Greenbush RR, Elkhart lake/Road America RR, and Waterloo crit the most.
now hopefully I'll be healthy enough by june to do the whole series, or any of it for that matter.
