This week’s Soldier Field Cycling race has been canceled for unspecified reasons. As with the early rain-out, registrations will transfer to a new date, to be determined. Refunds will be issued to riders who cannot make the alternative date.

The next Soldier Field race is currently scheduled for Tuesday, Aug. 17.



Update: ABD has sprung into action and will be hosting its Wednesday evening races in West Chicago this week. Also, don’t forget that Tuesday’s racing with the South Chicago Wheelmen will be in Joliet this week. Each evening is a great way to stay sharp in a fun, collegial atmosphere.

I saw two US Marine and two US diplomatic looking helicopters make a landing in the Soldier Field parking lot last night. We all thought Obama was going to get out of one of them. They just stayed there a few minutes and then took off. The cancellation could be related to that. Maybe something similar going on Wednesday.

Yes, the reason given is the parking lot will be a heliport on Wednesday night.

Hey, possible to let everyone know that instead of not racing on Wednesday, you can come out to the Pelladrome in West Chicago and have fun at the training crits? Would be greatly appreciated.

Rock on, thanks for the updated post. I might have to head down and check out the South Chicago event. I didn’t even realize that country club thing was down there. That is bad ass!
