New to the USGP in 2009, The Planet Bike Cup kicks off the Series in style on September 26th and 27th at one of the most popular venues of the Wisconsin Cycling Association Series: Angell Park Speedway in Sun Prairie, Wisconsin. Sun Prairie is located 15 miles from downtown Madison, Wisconsin. Cyclocross races have been held at Angell Park Speedway since 2003 and this year the venue will get the USGP treatment - the course is challenging and features terrain change, off-camber technical riding and some short sharp climbs. It's also a perfect venue for a good time - offering great spectating, yummy yummy food and beers served right off the back of a golf cart!
Please note: there will be a $3 per car parking charge in effect each day.
Friday, September 25th:
The course will be open from 2pm-4pm for pre-riding. Please do NOT ride the course outside of these hours.
4pm: Clif Bar Kids Clinic - FREE for juniors aged 10-16. Come ride with the Clif Bar athletes and learn the basics of cross, mounts, dismounts, bike handling. A great chance to review the course before trying the races on the weekend!
